Actually not...the problem started arbitrarily and in an attempt to fix, I reloaded several different software versions. Each attempt produced the same results.

Maybe I misread, but I thought it checked the configuration upon the first reset and reloaded it from flash "if necessary".(suggesting a self-checking process of some sort.) Since large code must be loaded via tftp, doing a nvram makes the box unaccessible except through the serial port, doesn't it? That sort of nullifies the benefits of tftp. Obviously, you could restore the configs via tftp before a nvram command, but afterwards? >and >also talk to TAC to see what their guidelines are. > Thanks, JIM >At 03:28 PM 6/10/97 -0500, Wkjr wrote: >> >>Update to post... >> >>Turns out the box needed to be "nuked" and reset. >> >>Ascend tech support had me do this and reload configs, >>and all is fine. >> >>Thanks, >> >>JIM >> >>++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ >>To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com >>To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.shore.net/~dreaming/ascend-faq">http://www.shore.net/~dreaming/ascend-faq</A>> >>or <<A HREF="ftp://ftp.shore.net/members/dreaming/ascend-faq.txt">ftp://ftp.shore.net/members/dreaming/ascend-faq.txt</A>> >> > >Kevin ++ Ascend Users Mailing List ++ To unsubscribe: send unsubscribe to ascend-users-request@bungi.com To get FAQ'd: <<A HREF="http://www.shore.net/~dreaming/ascend-faq">http://www.shore.net/~dreaming/ascend-faq</A>> or <<A HREF="ftp://ftp.shore.net/members/dreaming/ascend-faq.txt">ftp://ftp.shore.net/members/dreaming/ascend-faq.txt</A>> </PRE> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <HR> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg05490.html">Re: (ASCEND) OSPF table size and memory usage</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg05488.html">(ASCEND) OSPF table size and memory usage</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg05509.html">RE: (ASCEND) OSPF table size and memory usage</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg05492.html">(ASCEND) Kill All Sessions</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="mail136.html#05489"><STRONG>Main</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thrd41.html#05489"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> </BODY> </HTML>
