Cisco Switching/Routing :: 3725 - Format CF Card On 1841
Dec 26, 2011
I have 3725 router with internal CF and external slot for CF. I tried upgrading and ended up deleting the iOS version on the internal flash, and can not now put the iOS back!! I turned it off.... so there was no active iOS..
I have tried formatting the CF card on an 1841 but the 3725 won't read it. It is obviously stuck at ROMMON
What is the correct way to format a CF card so my 3725 will read it and I can get an iOS back on it!!
I am setting up multiple vlan interfaces on a pair of HSRP Routers that will provide layer 3 routing for a network. I am seeing this command sporadically show up in the router config mac-address-table static 0000.0c07.acd2 vlan 210
I am not entering this command. So far, it has not shown up on the companion 3725 router. I have a 2nd vlan I have just created and the problem hasn't shown up for that vlan as yet.Using C3725-ADVSECURITYK9-M), Version 12.4(15)T7, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3) on the routers.
I seem to be having a problem with DNS name resolution after configuring my router (Cisco 3725 running IOS image: c3725-adventerprisek9-mz.124-25.bin) for handling DHCP requests.
Before I made the change, everything was working correctly; I could ping Google.com from a computer inside my LAN and would get response from one of Google's public IP's like normal.
I had a separate DHCP/DNS server running Windows Server 2008 handling the DHCP request and DNS queries.
When I made the change, I turned off the DHCP/DNS server and issued the following DHCP commands to my router:
I'm trying to configure a SPAN session on a Cisco 3725 router, but it won't let me complete the command. The router has two Fast Ethernet interfaces: 0/0 and 0/1. I'm trying to configure a SPAN session with Fa0/0 as the source interface and Fa0/1 as the destination interface. [code] But when I try to configure the session, it seems like it's giving me the option to configure the SPAN session, but in the end the router won't let me: [code] When I type "?", why would it give me the option of using the Fast Ethernet interface as source port, then when I try to execute the command, it doesn't like it?
I read that there are internal and external flash memory in 3725 router that can max up to 128mb. So adding the sizes of internal and external flash memory, will that total to 256mb?
And also is the internal flash of 3725 just the same with its external flash?
I'm developing a project where I use the SNMP protocol to discover the network. By discovering the network I mean go through all the routers and switches and retrieve the IP routing table from routers and the forwarding table from switches. With the routers I have no problem. For the switches I need to know for each port the MAC addresses and the Vlans. Basically it's use SNMP to find a port number from a MAC address. To do that i followed this tutorial: [URL]
The problem is that I'm using a Cisco 3725 Router with IOS 12.4 (21) and a NM-16ESW module to work as a Switch and when I use the OID .1.3.6.1.2.1.17 corresponding to the BRIDGE-MIB as it follows:
From this I guess there's no information on the router about Vlans or anything. Other thing is that when I use community string indexing it returns a timeout. My theory is that this version doesn't support indexing but I don't know.
how can I get the Port Number from a MAC address from this "switch" (it's a router working as a switch) using SNMP?
I have a 3750 running 12.2(55) and when I configure BGP I only get the standard AS number choice of 1-65535, but my provider is supplying a 4-byte AS number which is six digits and it gets rejected at the prompt on the 3750. Does that mean no support on 3750
I had an issue today on a 4507r today where when I formatted the compact flash in slot0: (512mb) it caused the CPU to spike to 100% this took about 1.5 hours and did not cause adjacency loss or any thing, but was worrisome. This was a sup IV is this normal and should u let it complete like I did? Also when I copied the os to it from boot flash it caused the same behavior. I have done this a bunch in 6500 sup 720 without this issue?
I recently tried to manually format the flash on a model WS-2960S-48TS-L switch running IOS version 15.0(2)SE. While executing the operation I got the following error - mifs[8]: Failed to create superblock %Error formatting flash (I/O error).As a result the flash is no longer accessible by the switch. I spoke with Cisco and they indicated that a switch reload would remount the flash and make it accessable again but the .bin file would need to be reloaded using the xModem recovery procedure (what a pain).The next IOS version 15.0(2)SE1 will supposedly fix this bug but it has not been released yet. In the meantime if you are running 15.0(2)SE you may want to hold off performing a "format flash:" function on a 2960S.
correlates the older IOS format naming compared with the newer? I have an older catalyst 3550 that might need an IOS upgrade due to us starting to implement dot1x. The reason that I say this is that some of the commands in the dot1x config guide, such as aaa accounting dot1x, are not valid on this platform. The current IOS is c3550-i5q3l2-mz.121-8.EA1c but the newer format is the ipbase, ipservices, etc. format. There is a newer ios but how do I convert from one to the other? I think I need to research the IOS to see if the new commands are there as well as I want to make sure there are no gotchas from a hardware standpoint if I upgrade.

I have been using a route map to pick WAN exit points (PBR) on a 3725 router. This have been working fine with /24 networks. I am trying to pick the first /28 piece out of the 10.1.1.0 network and send it out a different exit from the rest of that network. I have tried the /28 entry at the start and end of the route map, although I thought the first match would stop any further route map processing. The entry does not seem to have any effect, as traffic from all addresses in the 10.1.1.0 /24 network exit per the "route-map 10-LAN permit 11" section.

I'm just getting started with cisco kit so you will have to bare with me.I have a cisco 1841.i have a very wierd issue of routing...i cannot ping and browse through this.
I have two VLANs - 10 and 20. 2 DHCP pools are configured on 2 1841's interfaces - 192.168.1.0 /25 and 192.168.1.128/26 with default router sitting on 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.129 respectively. No issues with obtaining IP address from any of those pools.Laptop connects to L3 3550 switch (switchport access vlan 10), which, in turn, connects to 1841 router through trunk (with VLANs 10 and 20 allowed).3550 is connected to 2960 through trunk with VLANs 10 and 20 allowed.Wireless router is connected to 2960.I can successfully ping my wireless router and outside world from 1841 from fa0/1 interface, but not from fa0/1.10 or fa0/1.20 sub-interfaces - all packets got dropped. My laptop can obtain IP from both pools (depending on port I connect it to), but can't ping my wireless router and anything beyond it.
When two Routers Models 1941 (Main Router) and 1841 work connected with HSRP, and a second LAN card is added to each one of them If i connect the GE 0/1 and Fe 0/1 of each of one of them To FireWall1 (in cluster with FireWall2) AND i connect the second LAN (Added) of each one To FireWall2 (in cluster with FireWall1) If FireWall1 will failure , How can Router 1941 know, to move traffic from GE 0/1 to the second LAN card connected to FireWall2 (which is in charge now, by cluster definition)
I've been given an 1841 with a 3G HWIC card installed to test with. I need to set up some sort of VPN to our ASA, the problem is though these 3G cards get a random public IP, so what options do I have to create a VPN tunnel from this router to the ASA without the 1841 getting a static public IP?
How to get the packet format of CFM used in the provider backbone domain having ethertype (0x88e7) & Itag fields in it. I think wireshark doesnt have this code implemented yet.
I have a Cisco 1841 router at home with version 12.4(13r)T advanced ip services. The setup is extremely simple:
1) PPPOE dialer to my service provider over ADSL 2) Nat overload on the dialer interface. 3) 2 V LAN s one for home network (wired) and one for wireless both v LAN's are connected through interface v LAN s respectively.
My problem is when I configure static NAT to map RDP or any other protocol to inside hosts this does n`t work. " ip nat source static tcp 192.168.20.3 2222 interface Dialer1 2222 ip nat source static tcp 192.168.20.3 3389 xx.xx.xx.xx 3389 extendable ip nat inside source list 20 interface Dialer1 overload "
When I open wire shark and sniff the traffic on home computer which is the one I`m trying to reach I can't see any traffic. And While performing Nat debugging I am also not able to see traffic going to that port (for example 3389).
I've got an 1841 router and am using NAT to expose certain IPs and ports to the outside world so that external users can see internal resources (namely, web sites). However, I can't seem to get it running such that I can visit the external IP address from inside the network and get the router to turn the request around so that it is redirected back inside the network. Shouldn't this be possible? Our previous router (a non-Cisco) was able to do this, but I can't seem to get the new one to do it.

I recently installed a WIC 1DSU-T1-V2 card into a 1841 router to add to a multilink bundle. I inserted it in Slot 1 and powered up the router and there was a new serial interface showing in the config automatically as s0/1/0. I was able to get it setup with ppp multilink and added to the multilink group. The problem is I need to do a sh controller or sh service-module to see if there are errors happening (I'm using this card as a replacement for an interface that was giving errors with this line before). I can do a sh s0/1/0 and that works but I can't see deeper. I found it odd that the serial port just appeared in the config when I booted without having to do anything, if this is correct behavior and how I see the Controller or CSU info for troubleshooting?
I tried to connect a 1841 to a Linksys with a static route. I am able to ping from a computer in the 1841 to a computer in the linksys network, but I can't ping from a computer in the Linksys network to a computer in the 1841 network?
I guess i am just getting old and forgot how this works, or i have an IOS load with an undocumented feature in it.A customer of ours wishes to have their exchange server appear to the outside world on a seperate IP address as their public pool address is.in the past this has not been an issue, however in the current configuration we are unable to get the source address to appear per the NAT statement it always sources on the overloaded IP. below is the relevant NAT config, am i missing something, or have i hit a IOS feature? [code] There is a 45% chance i have forgotten everything i learned on the NOC desk and a 50% chance that it is somethine really stupid and 5% IOS is broken
I want to SSH into a Cisco 1841 router and depending on the suffix added to the SSH (i.e ssh myrouter.myroute.com 2002), would like it to forward this request to a terminal server.Can this be done? If so, how does one accomplish this? I have done something similar with RDP but I was not sure about SSH.
What is the command to shutdown a cisco 1841 (say, to add a module)? I know how to reload / reboot, but does not seem to find any command with an obvious name.
I have an 1841 running Advanced Enterprise Services 12.4(22)T3 that is functioning as a DHCP server and DNS server. What I am trying to figure out how to do is have the DNS service respond to queries about the clients of the dhcp service. I have successfully enabled it as a caching server for other requests, like "google.com" and "cisco.com", but what about the hosts on the local LAN?
As an example, let's say a Windows computer connects to the network with the hostname "computer" and receives an IP address from the 1841 with the domain name "test.net". I would like the 1841 to serve DNS queries for "computer.test.net" with the IP address that it assigned.
We have a Cisco 1841 router that requires 2 levels of access, at the moment we have network admins logging in with a single username via SSH and with privilege 15 but we also need our helpdesk to login to run certain commands but not chaneg anything
we've to configure our router 1841 to use both 2 interface Fe for two different vlan (also the second has to go on internet).
Actually we have int Fe0/0 configured with an ip address 192.168.1.1 for lan1 192.168.1.0/24 and we will use the second int Fe0/1 with another ip address like 192.168.2.1 for lan2 192.168.2.0/24.
I've never had a router's CPU suddenly hit 99% and just stay like it for hours even after a reboot. This router really does nothing with regards to CPU, I'm looking at it's CPU history (via SolarWinds Orion NPM software that we use) and it is arounf 1-3% all the time for the past 2 years.
I did a show debugigng and it seems no debugging is running
We upgrade our Internet service in our India office which required a new router. The local vendor suggested an 1841, so that is what we have. It has two fastethernet ports on it.
The ISP (Airtel) provided the following IP address information:
Public WAN IP : 122.181.23.200/30 WAN IP : 122.181.23.202SUBNET MASK : 255.255.255.252GATEWAY : 122.181.23.201Pri DNS : 125.22.47.125Sec DNS : 202.56.250.5
We currently have a Cisco 1841 router with version 12.4(1c) of IOS using image c1841-ipbase-mz.124-1c.bin. Our goal is to make it so our router can fully support IPv6. The current IOS version cannot. I've seen a site that seems to indicate 12.4T does support with IP Base image but recently had Cisco tell me with the latest IOS release 15.1.4.M4 that I have to use either the "Advanced Enterprise Services" or "Advanced IP Services" image. Did Cisco just remove IPv6 from IPBase in later IOS releases?
Also I've seen conflicting specs on the max amount of Flash and DRAM the router can support. The following link shows that 384MB is the max for DRAM and 128MB max for flash. We're looking to upgrade ours from 128MB and 32MB respectively but as mentioned I've seen it where higher amounts are supported. In fact we bought a backup 1841 to have and it has a 256MB Flash card in it.URL
Last but not least. Where can I find a straightforward documention of this situation where we may have to upgrade our Flash and DRAM and then upgrading the IOS?
