Cisco 7200 IOS 12.3-3 ATM support ???

[mesuti]

hi,

I tried to upgrade my Cisco 7200 IOS to the newest one ( c7200-js-mz.123-3) but amazingly it didn't support ATM Commands, is it possible that a Cisco 7200 IOS 12.3-3 doesn't support ATM commands?

How can I check about the capabilities/features of any particular IOS?

I will appreciate any help

What is your ATM PA?

is it being recognized after you load the new IOS?

You can use the Feature Navigator available on CCO to verify the availibility of features in specific IOS releases.

ATM PA is PA-A3-E3

During the IOS load it sent messages like :

Router(config-if)atm pvc 1 1 5 aal5snap 34000 34000 65535

^

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

etc.

When I saw these messages, I restarted the router and downgraded back to the IOS that it had before.

I used software advisor in Cisco.com for IOS 12.3 features

here's the link :

regarding Software Advisor it supports the ATM, but why it sent me those messages...

thank you

The "atm pvc" command has been phased out and replaced by the pvc command.

Refer to the following URL for more info:

I saw that there differences between 12.2 and 12.3 IOS-es, but I have a back-to-back ATM topology between two Cisco 7200 Routers, Router A (NPE-400) and Router B (NPE-300),

Router A has the IOS c7200-jk8o3s-mz.122-17a. When I tried to upgrade it to IOS c7200-js-mz.123-3, it sent me those errors that I mentioned before, the problem was most probably the replacement of Commands, but when I tried to Upgrade the Router B, which currently has an IOS of AS5800 - c5800-p4-mz.120-4.XJ2 (I know that it sounds bad) to Cisco IOS c7200-jk8o3s-mz.122-17a, it send me the following errors during the load:

all the startup-config is cleared ?!!

Could you, please, help us on this and tell us where the problems are?

Best regards and thank you in advance

[Harold Ritter]

The reason these command are rejected is that there is a mistmatch between the interface name in the configuration file and the actual interface name (ie: FastEthernet0/0/0 when it should be really be FastEthernet0/0).

Fix the config and it should be fine.

Hope this helps.

Thank you very much, I still didn't try but I'm sure that the problem was in interface names as you said.
