3512-XL-EN can't use 115200 for xmodem

I use copy xmodem: flash:c3500xl-c3h2s-mz.120-5.WC17.bin to transfer IOS,but it only works under 9600kbps

When I set BAUD to something other than 9600,like 57600,115200 I can still connect to the switch,use all the commands but when I try to send file,it won't work   just no count  after a couple seconds,total retries keeps increasing and 0k transfered.

I don't know what the problem is,the switch works fine under 115200 with the ROMMON commands(using HyperTerminal),but just won't work for XMODEM send file.I really hate waiting by a bunch of noisy switches......

Hi,

You need to set the baud rate on switch also to 115200,check out the below link on how to speed up the recovery of xmodem
