I have a 2501 series router that I wanted to use... When I tried to bring it back on-line, it boots up normally and after the IOS is loaded with all the interface up message, the "press Enter key to proceed" didn't come out...
So I tried to change the config-register to 0x2101, the router boots into ROM mode with that very old IOS, but again, the "press Enter to proceed" didn't come out... WHich I suspect that someone may have turned off EXEC mode or something on the startup-config... Is there anything I cuold do which can bypass the startup config? Currently, the router is in BootROM mode as follows: >? $ Toggle cache state B [filename] [TFTP Server IP address | TFTP Server Name] Load and execute system image from ROM or from TFTP server C [address] Continue execution [optional address] D /S M L V Deposit value V of size S into location L with modifier M E /S M L Examine location L with size S with modifier M G [address] Begin execution H Help for commands I Initialize K Stack trace L [filename] [TFTP Server IP address | TFTP Server Name] Load system image from ROM or from TFTP server, but do not begin execution O Show configuration register option settings P Set the break point S Single step next instruction T function Test device (? for help) Deposit and Examine sizes may be B (byte), L (long) or S (short). Modifiers may be R (register) or S (byte swap). Register names are: D0-D7, A0-A6, SS, US, SR, and PC > Best Regards, Lee Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=65553&t=65553 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
