Solved: Error on router

cyberpimp28 · ‎01-20-2008

Hi Everyone,

I have a nagging issue with one of my routers which I used for my CCNA exams. Whenever I log into it while waiting at the exec prompt the following error is notified:

%Error opening tftp://255.255.255.255/network-confg (Timed out)

%Error opening tftp://255.255.255.255/cisconet.cfg (Timed out)co

%Error opening tftp://255.255.255.255/lagos.inetlynx-confg (Timed out)

%Error opening tftp://255.255.255.255/lagos.in.cfg (Timed out)

This started when I mistakenly erased the content of the flash but since I resolved the problem with the flash, that is, reinstalled the IOS I've been getting this nagging error. Any assistance reandered will be appreaciated.

USe the command " No service config" under the global configuration mode to avoid these error messages

Hi,

The router, viewing these messages, take the configuration file in a server tftp not accesible; or the file is not accessible for read.

You've probably specified this using the command: boot host.

View, for more information, boot config e boot host.

I hope this helps.

Best regards.
