Re: xmodem or interface config command in very old rommon

Hi David,

Thank you for your advice.

You solved the issue completely!
After I have upgraded the IOS to c2500-i-l.112-18.p.bin, AS2509-RJ
recognizes its hardware properly.

Michael and David,
again thank you so much for your help, I respect your knowledge and
experience...
