Cisco 2911 stops responding after a period of time

dudeman893

Level 1

I have a Cisco 2911 router with 4 T1 connections.  Two are set as a multilink and the other two are for two other locations.  The router will run fine, but after a month I cannot ping the gigabit ethernet 0/0 interface.  I would have to manually reboot the router to get it to respond again.  Before I noticed a lot of interface discards which would shutdown the 2911 and a manual reboot would be needed, but for this time it isn't the case.  Where would I start with this the memory and cpu usage are fine.

Here is the config:

First thing, to reduce the discards on the interface, please hard code the interface to whatever you want like 100/full-duplex

or 1000/full duplex if you are connecting with ethernet.

secondly, what IOS are you using. I guess there might be some memory leaks or some BUGs associated. Try to check in cisco website for bug toolkit. I heard that the new IOS's seem to have plenty of issues

thirdly i would suggest you send your syslogs to a syslog server. It would give you more idea of whats going on before the router dies.

Hope this helps

Kishore,

I just hard coded the gigabit 0/0 to 1000 full duplex.  The interface errors were occuring on the serial interfaces due to someone doing videoconferencing and trying to use more than 1.5Mbps over the T1.  Once they throttled down the video conferencing equipment, the errors seemed to go away. 

IOS is

Cisco IOS Software, C2900 Software (C2900-UNI​VERSALK9-M​), Version 15.0(1)M4, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1)

For syslogs I enabled:

logging trap notifications

logging IP of syslog server

service timestamps debug datetime msec

service timestamps log datetime msec localtime show-timezone year

We have recently installed some 2911's, after a few weeks we cant log into the consol, it comes up with a memory issue. THE IOS is version 15.2-4m3

It has serial cards and a voice card/ UC software

Any advice, this box failing is giving us big probelms
