I would highly recommend AGAINST using it. We used to use it and had all sorts of strange problems with the newly created compressed IOS. You also have to have an extra amount of DRAM available for the created image to be decompressed into RAM.
Flash and DRAM are soo cheap these days, you'd be better off upgrading the memory. Also, MZMaker is only applicable with uncompressed run-from-flash IOS (ie, 2500 series routers and the old 1600 series routers). Again, I'd highly recommend against it. thanks, -Brad Ellis CCIE#5796 (R&S / Security) Network Learning Inc [EMAIL PROTECTED] used Cisco gear: www.optsys.net CCIE Labs, racks, and classes: http://www.ccbootcamp.com/quicklinks.html ""Circusnuts"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Yes- the program is called MZMaker and can only be applied to IOS that > is run from RAM only. > > All the best !!! > Phil > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > Richard > Sent: Saturday, January 12, 2002 2:57 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Compresses Cisco IOS to fit onto a smaller flash size. > [7:31710] > > I wonder if anyone has tried to compress a larger Cisco IOS to fit onto > a > router with a smaller flash.
