如果您的路由器的flash因为意外丢失了IOS，您可以在ROM monitor commands模式下通过如下两种办法恢复:
　　
　　1) xmodem—Use this if the computer attached to your console has a terminal emulator that has xmodem capability.
　　2) tftpdnld—Use this if you have a TFTP server directly connected to the Ethernet 0 port.
　　
　　Using the xmodem Command
　　The xmodem command establishes a connection between a console and the router console port for disaster recovery if both the boot and system images are erased from Flash memory.
　　xmodem [filename]—Establishes an xmodem connection between the console and the router. The optional parameter filename specifies the source file containing the Cisco IOS image.
　　Other options include the following:
　　　·-c—use cyclic redundancy check (CRC-16)
　　　·-y—use Ymodem transfer protocol
　　　·-r—copy the image to DRAM for launch
　　　·-x—do not launch image on completion of download
　　
　　Using the tftpdnld Command
　　The tftpdnld command downloads a Cisco IOS software image from a remote server into Flash memory using TFTP.
　　tftpdnld—Begins the TFTP copy command.
　　The following variables are required:
　　·IP_ADDRESS—The IP address for the router you are using.
　　·IP_SUBNET_MASK—The subnet mask for the router you are using.
　　·DEFAULT_GATEWAY—The default gateway for the router you are using.
　　·TFTP_SERVER—The IP address of the server from which you want to download the image file.
　　·TFTP_FILE—The name of the file that you want to download.
　　·The following variables are optional:
　　·TFTP_VERBOSE—Print setting. 0=quiet, 1=progress, 2=verbose. The default is 1.
　　·TFTP_RETRY_COUNT—Retry count for ARP and TFTP. The default is 7.
　　·TFTP_TIMEOUT—Overall timeout of the download operation in seconds. The default is 2400 seconds.
　　·TFTP_CHECKSUM—Performs a checksum test on the image. 0=no, 1=yes. The default is 1.
　　The syntax for specifying the variables is:
　　VARIABLE_NAME=value
　　
　　After you specify the variables, you must reenter the tftpdnld command. For example:
　　rommon 1 > tftpdnld
　　
　　rommon 2 > IP_ADDRESS=172.15.19.11
　　
　　rommon 3 > IP_SUBNET_MASK=255.255.255.0
　　
　　rommon 4 > DEFAULT_GATEWAY=172.15.19.1
　　
　　rommon 5 > TFTP_SERVER=172.15.20.10
　　
　　rommon 6 > TFTP_FILE=/tftpboot/c2600-i-mz
　　
　　rommon 7 > TFTP_VERBOSE=1
　　
　　rommon 8 > tftpdnld
　　
　　
　　　　 IP_ADDRESS=172.15.19.11
　　　　 IP_SUBNET_MASK=255.255.2
