Troubleshooting Commands
This chapter describes the commands used to troubleshoot your router. To troubleshoot, you need to discover, isolate, and fix the problems. You can discover problems with the system's monitoring commands, isolate problems with the system's test commands, and resolve problems with other commands, including debug.
This chapter describes general fault management commands. For detailed troubleshooting procedures and a variety of scenarios, see the Internetwork Troubleshooting Guide publication. For complete details on all debug commands, see the Debug Command Reference.
For troubleshooting tasks and examples, refer to the chapter entitled "Troubleshooting the Router" in the Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide.
attach
To access the Cisco IOS software image on a line card to monitor and maintain information on the line card, use the attach privileged EXEC command. To exit from the Cisco IOS software image on the line card and return to the Cisco IOS image on the GRP card, use the exit command.
attach slot-number
Syntax Description
slot-number
|
Slot number of the line card you want to connect to. Slot numbers range from 0 to 11 for the Cisco 12012 and 0 to 7 for the Cisco 12008. If the slot number is omitted, you are prompted for the slot number.

This command was added to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.
|
Usage Guidelines
Use the attach EXEC command to get specific information about a line card.
After you connect to the Cisco IOS image on the line card using the attach command, the prompt changes to "LC-Slotx#," where x is the slot number of the line card.
You can also use the execute-on slot privileged EXEC command to execute commands on one or all line cards.
Note
Do not execute the config command from the Cisco IOS software image on the line card.
Note
Because not all statistics are maintained on the line cards, the output from some of the show commands might not be consistent.
Examples
The following example connects to the Cisco IOS image running on the line card in slot 9, gets a list of valid show commands, and returns the Cisco IOS image running on the GRP:

|
(Optional) Displays previous test results (if any) for the line card.
|
post
|
(Optional) Initiates a EPROM-based extended power-on self-test (EPOST) only. The EPOST test suite is not as comprehensive as the field diagnostics, and a pass/fail message is the only message displayed on the console.
|
verbose [wait]
|
(Optional) Enables the maximum status messages to be displayed on the console. By default, only the minimum status messages are displayed on the console. If you specify the optional wait keyword, the Cisco IOS software is not be automatically reloaded on the line card after the test completes successfully.
|
wait
|
(Optional) Stops the automatic reloading of the Cisco IOS software on the line card after the successful completion of the field diagnostic testing. If you use this keyword, you must use the microcode reload slot global configuration command, or manually remove and insert the line card (to power it up) in the slot so that the GRP will recognize the line card and download the Cisco IOS software image to the line card.
|
Defaults
No field diagnostics tests are performed on the line card.

11.2 GS
|
This command was added to support the Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.
|
Usage Guidelines
The diag command must be executed from the GRP main console port.
Perform diagnostics on the CSC only if a redundant CSC is in the router.
Diagnostics will stop and ask you for confirmation before altering the router's configuration. For example, running diagnostics on a SFC or CSC will cause the fabric to go from full bandwidth to one quarter bandwidth. Bandwidth is not affected by GRP or line card diagnostics.
The field diagnostic software image is bundled with the Cisco IOS software and is downloaded automatically from the GRP to the target line card prior to testing.
Caution 
Performing field diagnostics on a line card stops all activity on the line card. Before the
diag EXEC command begins running diagnostics, you are prompted to confirm the request to perform field diagnostics on the line card.
In normal mode, if a test fails, the title of the failed test is displayed on the console. However, not all tests that are performed are displayed. To view all the tests that are performed, use the verbose keyword.
After all diagnostic tests are completed on the line card, a PASSED or TEST FAILURE message is displayed. If the line card sends a PASSED message, the Cisco IOS software image on the line card is automatically reloaded unless the wait keyword is specified. If the line card sends a TEST FAILURE message, the Cisco IOS software image on the line card is not automatically reloaded.
If you want to reload the line card after it fails diagnostic testing, use the microcode reload slot global configuration command.
Note
When you stop the field diagnostic test, the line card remains down (that is, in an unbooted state). In most cases, you stopped the testing because you need to remove the line card or replace the line card. If that is not the case, and you want to bring the line card back up (that is, online), you must use the microcode reload global configuration command or power cycle the line card.
If the line card fails the test, the line card is defective and should be replaced. In future releases this might not be the case because DRAM and SDRAM SIMM modules might be field replaceable units. For example, if the DRAM test failed you might only need to replace the DRAM on the line card.
For more information, refer to the Cisco 12000 series installation and configuration guides.
Examples
The following example shows the output when field diagnostics are performed on the line card in slot 3. After the line card passes all field diagnostic tests, the Cisco IOS software is automatically reloaded on the card. Before starting the diagnostic tests, you must confirm the request to perform these tests on the line card because all activity on the line card is halted. The total/indiv. timeout set to 600/220 sec. message indicates that 600 seconds are allowed to perform all field diagnostics tests, and that no single test should exceed 220 seconds to complete.

Usage Guidelines
Caution 
Use the
exception commands only under the direction of a technical support representative. Creating a core dump while the router is functioning in a network can disrupt network operation. The resulting binary file, which is very large, must be transferred to a TFTP, FTP, or rcp server and subsequently interpreted by technical personnel who have access to source code and detailed memory maps.
If you use TFTP to dump the core file to a server, the router will only dump the first 16 MB of the core file. If the router's memory is larger than 16 MB, the whole core file will not be copied to the server. Therefore, use rcp or FTP to dump the core file.
Examples
The following example configures a router to use FTP to dump a core file named dumpfile to the FTP server at 172.17.92.2 when it crashes:
exception dump 172.17.92.2
exception core-file dumpfile

The resulting binary file, which is very large, must be transferred to a TFTP, FTP, or rcp server and subsequently interpreted by technical personnel who have access to source code and detailed memory maps.
If you use TFTP to dump the core file to a server, the router will only dump the first 16 MB of the core file. If the router's memory is larger than 16 MB, the whole core file will not be copied to the server. Therefore, use rcp or FTP to dump the core file.
The core dump is written to a file named hostname-core on your server, where hostname is the name of the router. You can change the name of the core file by configuring the exception core-file command.
This procedure can fail for certain types of system crashes. However, if successful, the core dump file will be the size of the memory available on the processor (for example, 16 MB for a CSC/4).
Examples
The following example configures a router to use FTP to dump a core file to the FTP server at 172.17.92.2 when it crashes:
exception dump 172.17.92.2

Usage Guidelines
This command is currently supported only on Cisco 12000 series Gigabit Switch Routers.
Use the exception linecard global configuration command only when directed by a technical support representative and only enable options that the technical support representative requests you to enable. Technical support representatives need to be able to look at the crash information from the line card to troubleshoot serious problems on the line card. The crash information contains all the line card memory information including the main memory and transmit and receive buffer information.
Caution 
Use caution when enabling the
exception linecard global configuration command. Enabling all options could cause a large amount (150 to 250 MB) of crash information to be sent to the server.
Examples
The following example enables the storing of crash information for line card 8. By default, 256 MB of main memory is stored.
exception linecard slot 8
exception memory
To cause the router to create a core dump and reboot when certain memory size parameters are violated, use the exception memory global configuration command. To disable the rebooting and core dump, use the no form of this command.

Usage Guidelines
Caution 
Use the

The resulting binary file, which is very large, must be transferred to a TFTP, FTP, or rcp server and subsequently interpreted by technical personnel who have access to source code and detailed memory maps.
This command is useful to troubleshoot memory leaks.
The size is checked every 60 seconds. If you enter a size that is greater than the free memory, a core dump and router reload is generated after 60 seconds.
The exception dump command must be configured in order to generate a core dump file. If the exception dump command is not configured, the router reloads without generating a core dump.
Examples
The following example configures the router to monitor the free memory. If the amount of free memory falls below 250,000 bytes, the router will dump the core file and reload.
exception dump 131.108.92.2
exception core-file memory.overrun

|
The command syntax was changed to include the level argument.
|
Usage Guidelines
This command copies logging messages to an internal buffer. The buffer is circular in nature, so newer messages overwrite older messages after the buffer is filled.
Specifying a level causes messages at that level and numerically lower levels to be logged in an internal buffer. See Table 54 for a list of level arguments.
To display the messages that are logged in the buffer, use the EXEC command show logging. The first message displayed is the oldest message in the buffer.
Do not make the buffer size too large because the router could run out of memory for other tasks. You can use the show memory EXEC command to view the free processor memory on the router; however, this is the maximum available and should not be approached. The command default logging buffered resets the buffer size to the default for the platform.

The effect of the log keyword with the IP access list (extended) command depends on the setting of the logging console command. The log keyword takes effect only if the logging console level is set to 6 or 7. If you change the default to a level lower than 6 and specify the log keyword with the IP access list (extended) command, no information is logged or displayed.
Examples
The following example changes the level of messages displayed to the console terminal to alerts, which means alerts and emergencies are displayed:

Usage Guidelines
Sending syslog messages to the SNMP network management station occurs when you enable syslog traps with the snmp-server enable trap global configuration command. Because SNMP traps are inherently unreliable and much too important to lose, at least one syslog message, the most recent message, is stored in a history table on the router. The number of messages stored in the table is governed by the logging history size command.
Specifying a level causes messages at that severity level and numerically lower levels to be stored in the router's history table and sent to the SNMP network management station. For example, specifying the level critical causes critical (2), alerts (1), and emergencies (0) messages to be stored to the history table and sent to the SNMP network management station. See Table 57 for a list of severity levels.
The show logging history command displays information about the history table such as the table size, the status of messages, and text of the messages stored in the table.

Usage Guidelines
The logging process controls the distribution of logging messages to the various destinations, such as the logging buffer, terminal lines, or syslog server. You can turn logging on and off for these destinations individually using the logging buffered, logging monitor, and logging commands. However, if the logging on command is disabled, no messages will be sent to these destinations. Only the console will receive messages.
Additionally, the logging process logs messages to the console and the various destinations after the processes that generated them have completed. When the logging process is disabled, messages are displayed on the console as soon as they are produced, often appearing in the middle of command output.
Caution 
Disabling the logging on command will significantly slow down the router. Any process generating debug or error messages will wait until the messages have been displayed on the console before continuing.
The logging synchronous command also affects the displaying of messages to the console. When the logging synchronous command is enabled, messages will only appear after the user types a carriage return.
Examples
The following example shows command output and message output when logging is enabled. The ping process finishes before any of the logging information is printed to the console (or any other destination).

Usage Guidelines
When synchronous logging of unsolicited messages and debug output is turned on, unsolicited Cisco IOS software output is displayed on the console or printed after solicited Cisco IOS software output is displayed or printed. Unsolicited messages and debug output is displayed on the console after the prompt for user input is returned. This is to keep unsolicited messages and debug output from being interspersed with solicited software output and prompts. After the unsolicited messages are displayed, the console displays the user prompt again.
When specifying a severity level number, consider that for the logging system, low numbers indicate greater severity and high numbers indicate lesser severity.
When a terminal line's message-queue limit is reached, new messages are dropped from the line, although these messages might be displayed on other lines. If messages are dropped, the notice "%SYS-3-MSGLOST number-of-messages due to overflow" follows any messages that are displayed. This notice is displayed only on the terminal that lost the messages. It is not sent to any other lines, any logging servers, or the logging buffer.

Caution 
By configuring abnormally large message-queue limits and setting the terminal to "terminal monitor" on a terminal that is accessible to intruders, you expose yourself to "denial of service" attacks. An intruder could carry out the attack by putting the terminal in synchronous output mode, making a Telnet connection to a remote host, and leaving the connection idle. This could cause large numbers of messages to be generated and queued, and these messages would consume all available RAM. Although unlikely to occur, you should guard against this type of attack through proper configuration.
Examples
The following example identifies line 4 and enables synchronous logging for line 4 with a severity level of 6. Then the example identifies another line, line 2, and enables synchronous logging for line 2 with a severity level of 7 and specifies a maximum number of buffers to be 70000:
line 4

Usage Guidelines
The ping (packet internet groper) command sends ISO CLNS echo packets to test the reachability of a remote router over a connectionless Open System Interconnection (OSI) network.
The ping command sends an echo request packet to an address, then awaits a reply. Ping output can help you evaluate path-to-host reliability, delays over the path, and whether the host can be reached or is functioning.
To abnormally terminate a ping session, type the escape sequence—by default, Ctrl-^ X. You type the default by simultaneously pressing and releasing the Ctrl, Shift, and 6 keys, and then pressing the X key.
Table 61 describes the test characters that the ping facility sends.
Table 61 ping Test Characters

Each period indicates that the network server timed out while waiting for a reply.
|
U
|
A destination unreachable error protocol data unit (PDU) was received.
|
C
|
A congestion experienced packet was received.
|
I
|
User interrupted test.
|
?
|
Unknown packet type.
|
&
|
Packet lifetime exceeded.
|
Note
Not all protocols require hosts to support pings. For some protocols, the pings are Cisco-defined and are only answered by another Cisco router.
Examples
After you enter the ping command in privileged mode, the system prompts for one of the following keywords: apollo, appletalk, clns, decnet, ip, novell, vines, or xns. The default protocol is IP.
If you enter a host name or address on the same line as the ping command, the default action is taken as appropriate for the protocol type of that name or address.
The optional data, df-bit, repeat, size, source, timeout, and validate keywords can be used to avoid extended ping command output. You can use as many of these keywords as you need, and you can use them in any order after the host-name or system-address arguments.
Although the precise dialog varies somewhat from protocol to protocol, all are similar to the ping session using default values shown in the following output:
Target IP address: 192.168.7.27
Sweep range of sizes [n]:
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.7.27, timeout is 2 seconds:
Success rate is 100 percent, round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms
Table 62 describes the default ping fields shown in the display.
Table 62 ping Field Descriptions
Field
|
Description
|
Protocol [ip]:
|
Prompts for a supported protocol. Enter appletalk, clns, ip, novell, apollo, vines, decnet, or xns. The default is IP.
|
Target IP address:
|
Prompts for the IP address or host name of the destination node you plan to ping. If you have specified a supported protocol other than IP, enter an appropriate address for that protocol here. The default is none.
|
Repeat count [5]:
|
Prompts for the number of ping packets that will be sent to the destination address. The default is 5 packets.
|
Datagram size [100]:
|
Prompts for the size of the ping packet (in bytes). The default is 100 bytes.
|
Timeout in seconds [2]:
|
Prompts for the timeout interval. The default is 2 seconds.
|
Extended commands [n]:
|
Specifies whether a series of additional commands appears.
|
Sweep range of sizes [n]:
|
Allows you to vary the sizes of the echo packets being sent. This capability is useful for determining the minimum sizes of the MTUs configured on the nodes along the path to the destination address. Packet fragmentation contributing to performance problems can then be reduced.
|
!!!!!
|
Each exclamation point (!) indicates receipt of a reply. A period (.) indicates that the network server timed out while waiting for a reply. Other characters may appear in the ping output display, depending on the protocol type.
|
Success rate is 100 percent
|
Indicates the percentage of packets successfully echoed back to the router. Anything less than 80 percent is usually considered problematic.
|
round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms
|
Indicates the round-trip travel time intervals for the protocol echo packets, including minimum/average/maximum (in milliseconds).

Usage Guidelines
The user-level ping feature provides a basic ping facility for users who do not have system privileges. This feature allows the Cisco IOS software to perform the simple default ping functionality for a number of protocols. Only the terse form of the ping command is supported for user-level pings.
If the system cannot map an address for a host name, it returns an "%Unrecognized host or address" error message.
To abnormally terminate a ping session, type the escape sequence—by default, Ctrl-^ X. You type the default by simultaneously pressing and releasing the Ctrl, Shift, and 6 keys and then pressing the X key.

Usage Guidelines
The Cisco link service (CLS) is used as the interface between data link users (DLUs), such as DLSw, LNM, DSPU, and SNASw, and their corresponding data link circuits (DLCs) such as LLC, VDLC, and QLLC. Each DLU registers a particular SAP with CLS, and establishes circuits through CLS over the DLC.
The show cls command displays the service access point (SAP) values associated with the DLU and the circuits established through CLS.
Examples
The following is sample output from the show cls command:
DTE:1234.4000.0001 1234.4000.0002 04 04
T1 timer:0 T2 timer:0 Inact timer:0
max out:0 max in:0 retry count:10

The following is sample output from the show cls brief command:
DTE:1234.4000.0001 1234.4000.0002 04 04
Bridging VDLC VDLC650
The examples show two DLUs—SNASw and DLSw—active in the router. SNASw uses a SAP value of 0x04, and the associated DLC port is VDLC650. SNASw has a circuit established between MAC addresses 1234.4000.0001 and 1234.4000.0002 using source and destination SAPs 04 and 04. DLSw is a bridging protocol and uses VDLC1000 and VDLC650 ports. There are no circuits in place at this time.
In the output from the show cls (without the brief argument), the values of timers and counters applicable to this circuit are displayed.

Context information is specific to processors and architectures, whereas software version and uptime information are not specific to architectures. Context information for the Cisco 2600 Series router differs from that for other router types because the Cisco 2600 runs with an M860 processor. The display from the show context command includes the following information:
•

Usage Guidelines
Once a minute a routine is run that gets environmental measurements from sensors and stores the output into a buffer. This buffer is displayed on the console when show environment is invoked.
If a measurement exceeds desired margins, but has not exceeded fatal margins, a warning message is printed to the system console. The system software queries the sensors for measurements once a minute, but warnings for a given test point are printed at most once every hour for sensor readings in the warning range and once every 5 minutes for sensor readings in the critical range. If a measurement is out of line within these time segments, an automatic warning message appears on the console. As noted, you can query the environmental status with the show environment command at any time to determine whether a measurement is at the warning or critical tolerance.
If a shutdown occurs because of detection of fatal environmental margins, the last measured value from each sensor is stored in internal nonvolatile memory.
For environmental specifications, refer to the hardware installation and configuration publication for your individual chassis.
If the Cisco 12000 series exceeds environmental conditions, a message similar to the one below is displayed on the console:
%GSR_ENV-2-WARNING: Slot 3 Hot Sensor Temperature exceeds 40 deg C;
Note
Blower temperatures that exceed environmental conditions do not generate a warning message.
Examples
The following example shows the typical show environment display when there are no warning conditions in the system for the Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7200 series. This information may vary slightly depending on the platform you are using. The date and time of the query are displayed, along with the data refresh information and a message indicating that there are no warning conditions.
Environmental status as of 13:17:39 UTC Thu Jun 6 1996

Description
|
Arbiter type 1
|
Numbers indicating the arbiter type and backplane type.
|
Power supply
|
Number and type of power supply installed in the chassis.
|
Active fault conditions:
|
If any fault conditions exist (such as power supply failure, fan failure, and temperature too high), they are listed here.
|
Fan transfer point:
|
Software controlled fan speed. If the router is operating below its automatic restart temperature, the transfer point is reduced by 10 percent of the full range each minute. If the router is at or above its automatic restart temperature, the transfer point is increased in the same way.
|
Active trip points:
|
Temperature sensor is compared against the values displayed at the bottom of the show environment table command output.
|
15 of 15 soft shutdowns remaining
|
When the temperature increases above the "board shutdown" level, a soft shutdown occurs (that is, the cards are shut down, and the power supplies, fans, and CI continue to operate). When the system cools to the restart level, the system restarts. The system counts the number of times this occurs and keeps the up/down cycle from continuing forever. When the counter reaches zero, the system performs a hard shutdown, which requires a power cycle to recover. The soft shutdown counter is reset to its maximum value after the system has been up for 6 hours.
|
Dbus slots:
|
Indicates which chassis slots are occupied.
|
card, inlet, hotpoint, exhaust
|
Temperature measurements at the inlet, hotpoint, and exhaust areas of the card. The (6) and (7) indicate the slot numbers. Dual-RSP chassis can show two RSPs.

Usage Guidelines
This command first appeared in Cisco IOS Release 10.0 and was modified in Cisco IOS Release 11.2GS to add the slot and summary keywords.
This command displays the state of syslog error and event logging, including host addresses, and whether console logging is enabled. This command also displays Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) configuration parameters and protocol activity.
When you use the optional history keyword, information about the syslog history table is displayed such as the table size, the status of messages, and text of messages stored in the table. Messages stored in the table are governed by the logging history global configuration command.
Examples
The following is sample output from the show logging command:
Console logging: disabled
Monitor logging: level debugging, 266 messages logged.
Trap logging: level informational, 266 messages logged.
SNMP logging: disabled, retransmission after 30 seconds
Table 81 describes significant fields shown in the display.

Description
|
Syslog logging
|
When enabled, system logging messages are sent to a UNIX host that acts as a syslog server; that is, it captures and saves the messages.
|
Console logging
|
If enabled, states the level; otherwise, this field displays disabled.
|
Monitor logging
|
Minimum level of severity required for a log message to be sent to a monitor terminal (not the console).
|
Trap logging
|
Minimum level of severity required for a log message to be sent to a syslog server.
|
SNMP logging
|
Shows whether SNMP logging is enabled and the number of messages logged, and the retransmission interval.
|
The following is sample output from the show logging history command:
Router# show logging history
Syslog History Table: 1 maximum table entry, saving level notifications or higher
0 messages ignored, 0 dropped, 15 table entries flushed,
SNMP notifications not enabled
entry number 16: SYS-5-CONFIG_I
Configured from console by console
Table 82 describes the significant fields shown in the display.
Table 79 show logging history Field Descriptions
Field
|
Description
|
maximum table entry
|
Number of messages that can be stored in the history table. Set with the logging history size command.
|
saving level notifications or higher
|
Level of messages that are stored in the history table and sent to the SNMP server (if SNMP notification is enabled). Set with the logging history command.
|
messages ignored
|
Number of messages not stored in the history table because the severity level is greater than that specified with the logging history command.
|
dropped
|
Number of messages that could not be processed due to lack of system resources. Dropped messages do not appear in the history table and are not sent to the SNMP server.
|
table entries flushed
|
Number of messages that have been removed from the history table to make room for newer messages.
|
SNMP notifications
|
Whether syslog traps of the appropriate level are sent to the SNMP server. Syslog traps are either enabled or not enabled through the snmp-server enable command.
|
entry number
|
Number of the message entry in the history table.
|
SYS-5-CONFIG_I Configured from console by console
|
Cisco IOS syslog message consisting of the facility name (SYS) which indicates where the message came from, the severity level (5), the message name (CONFIG_I), and the message text.
|
timestamp
|
Time, based on the router's up time, that the message was generated.
|
The following is sample output from the show logging summary command for the Cisco 12012. A number in the column indicates that the syslog contains that many messages for the line card. For example, line card in slot 9 has 1 error message, 4 warning messages, and 47 notification messages.
