Unable to execute commands on Cisco 2504

Steven-Edouard

Level 1

Heya all,

I have x3 Cisco 2504 routers and haven't powered them up for a while.

I powered up the 3 routers only to find that 2 of the 3 successfully load up IOS where one of them takes a really long time to boot up.

When it does I'm only prompt with an un-usual CLI prompt which is ">".

At this prompt no IOS commands are being recognised.

Any suggestions?

Hi Mohammed,

I followed the Cisco guide you provided me and it seems that my problem was due to a configuration register issue.

I have now successfully loaded up my IOS.

Thanks again mate.
