This may be a dumb question, but I figured I'd mention it since this thread now exists. I recently got some gear together for a lab. (I don't know if I will ever even take the CCNA exams, but I enjoy playing around). I have 2x2950 switches and 2x1760 routers. I bought these all used from Amazon Marketplace. They all currently have ios loaded on them, and I'm worried about losing that. Does it make sense to set up a tftp server on a local machine and back up the ios images before I do anything else? (Or is this not really an issue and should I not really worry about losing my ios images?)

psydude posted:In order to lose the IOS images you'd have to physically damage the equipment. Ahh okay. I thought that might be the case, but I figured I'd ask. I wasn't sure if they could become easily corrupted or anything. (Being an Enterprise Windows admin will do that to you ) Thanks for the help!
