Re: Traceback message [7:39887]
Tracebacks are HEX dumps that, when decoded, tell the exact story of which process or harwdare/software components and routine casued the problem. Usually in case of exception or crash. IOS Developers use so called "symbol files:" to decode these messages. They build the symbol files when the IOS image is built.

Re: Traceback message [7:39887]
Tracebacks are generally baaad, they report internl errors, usually sofware and are most useful to TAC engineers who can run them thru their secret decoder ring and identify what process caused said errors. This particular bug doesn't seem as catastrophic but I wouldn't worry too much about disabling fast switching on a dialer interface until a bug fix is available or of coarse you can backrev.

Also, assuming your dialer interfaces are relatively low speed, disabling fast switching on the dialer interface really won't impact the performance of that link. It might increase CPU usage, but again, if it's a slower link, it won't cause a huge increase. Mike W.
