Figure 3-11. Directed Netboot
After the router reboots, it gets a configuration file from a TFTP server and
loads the software image from the local file system.
The router starts bridging and routing traffic.

When you boot the router, its LEDs flash in a particular order. To
interpret the LED sequence and troubleshoot any potential problems,
refer to Chapter 4.
After connecting the router to the network, you can replace the console connection
with a modem connection to enable remote dial-in access.
Note:
If the router cannot find a software image or configuration file via
Directed Netboot, it attempts to Local Boot once. If both attempts fail, the AN
Diagnostic Monitor Login prompt (
AN_DIAG>
) appears on the console. In this
case, you or your network administrator must troubleshoot the problem.
