Are the VoIP phones running SIP with NAT traversal handled by the router? If so, you are probably encountering CSCsj08002 which is squashed in: 12.4(11)T4 12.4(16.10)T 12.4(15)T2 12.4(18.10)M "CPU slowly ramps up until NAT translation is cleared" The leak is seen when there are SIP translations being created that use port 5060 on both the inside and outside. The rate at which the CPU increases will depend upon the rate SIP of phone calls. > I believe 12.3(18) [c1700-k9o3sy7-mz.123-18.bin] was the original and it > is still available in flash > but we now show it loading 12.4(1c) [see below] after the IOS change. > Replacing the router itself once when the IOS change didn't help. > Packet traces taken on the LAN side of the network do not indicate any > significant broadcast or other suspect traffic. > > The following line is at the affected location in the SHOW VER output but > not on the stable router's SHOW VER output: "ROM: C1700 Software > (C1700-K9O3SY7-M), Version 12.3(18), RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc3)" > > Any help or advice is greatly appreciated! You're booting to 12.4(1c) because of the "boot system" command. -- Jay Hennigan - CCIE #7880 - Network Engineering - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Impulse Internet Service - http://www.impulse.net/ Your local telephone and internet company - 805 884-6323 - WB6RDV _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
