So David how do you create a buffer overflow condition on this router? Hmm?
And Dave which counter got a bad value?
This message is more likely to mean that a power spike or static discharge
occurred on the serial interface that caused the router to reset.
Gerado did the router reboot successfully? Is it operating now? How long
has this router been in place and on this circuit? Do you have syslog data
showing any hardware or software problems before the reboot?
The reality is your router hiccuped. If it starts happening regularly you
should look at putting it on a UPS, talk to your carrier about checking or
adding ESD/spike protection to the circuit , or call the Cisco TAC (if you
are on maintenance) about swapping the router.
Fear, Uncertainty, and Doom at it's finest.
Regards,
Brian
