2610 Factory Reset and Startup Config Files

schroednet · ‎06-18-2007

Hi all;

I have a used 2610 which I did a factory reset on. I am able to get into the IOS and edit/change the config.

However after editing and trying to save using the command:

copy run start

I get prompted to save the config to a file name/location which ultimately fails. Then on reboot it goes into the "basic setup" sequence again never saving to the config I'm trying to save.

The IOS ver. is 12.0(3)T and I do have the latest ver. and an TFTP program to upgrade, but I would like to create a config and save it first.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance. Steve

Have you checked the config-register ?

Please post the output from typing 'show ver'.

Thanks

Edison;

Thanks for the reply. Yes my register was 0x2142 but I did the "config-register 0x2102" and then was able to copy the running config to the startup config.

I do have another ?. I did type in a time offset command for my timezone but after reboot it keeps defaulting back to year 1993.

Here's my sh ver:

Hi,

Unfortunately the clock settings are cleared at router reboot, you can configure a NTP server to overcome this issue.
