Do you have a TFTP server on the segment maybe with a file net-conf? It
could be pulling a bad configuration file from a tftp server. Also it might
be trying to pull a IOS image from a TFTP server that is not there. It
might have a boot system tftp command in the config. I assume you just got
these and you are experiencing the problem.
Try going into ROM mode and change the Configuration register to ignore the
start up config file (confreg 0x142). reload the router and see what the
config look like. I have a feeling it is looking for something off a TFTP
server. If you want you can make a copy of the config and then do a write
erase. Change back the Config Register to 0x2102 (Router#config-reg
0x2102). Reload the router and see if you get the same error.
Hope this helps
Drew

You're right, but I think he is talking about the UPDOWN messages.
This could be due to a "shutdown" line in each interface, but it would help
to see the configuration.

Subject: Re: Strange problem with Cisco 2501 routers
The only startup errors evident in this output is this:
> Unknown or ambiguous service arg - udp-small-servers
> Unknown or ambiguous service arg - tcp-small-servers
> Illegal IP keyword - classless
You're probably seeing this because you are running IOS 11.1(7), but your
config is pasted in from a router running at least 11.2. 11.1(7) apparently
doesn't understand these lines:
service udp-small-servers
service tcp-small-servers
ip classless
You can upgrade your IOS or remove those lines from your config. The status
messages about the interfaces are not strange in any way. They look quite
normal, assuming the ethernet port was connected to something but the serial
ports were not.
