Cisco Router Reset Question

How can you detect that a router has been reset to factory defaults? Is this data sent to a router log? or a server log?

By definition, if the device is reset to factory-default, the logs will be empty (except for the power-on self test stuff).
You could capture the console output while you execute the commands to reset the device.
You should see it boot back up with the out-of-box setup re-enabled and very minimal configuration when you type "show run" and "dir".

    I don't think so. A sure way to know is the password and network information would have changed to defaults. Unless it was reset and reconfigured but then the password would still be wrong.

  • Does cisco router support "tcp reset" mesg when the traffic blocked by access lit ?

    hi ,
    im trying to know if i  blocked a destination with an access list on cisco.
    can i make "tcp-rest " to that connection instead on dropping it ??
    i belive it supported on ASA appliance , but not sure if supported on cisco routers.
    im trying to migrate from linux router to cisco router and apply the same config , one of the challenging task is , i have 
    "reject-with=tcp-reset"
    im wondering if i can do it on cisco router
    waiting ur responce
    regards

    One of the things that keeps me engaged with these forums is that they challenge me and give me opportunities to learn new things. My initial reaction to your question about IPS on IOS router was to say that this is not supported. But I did some research and find that apparently IPS functionality is now supported on some (but not all) of Cisco IOS routers. See this link for additional detail:

  • Cisco 3G / 3G Router configuration question

    Hi,
    I am the 1st time to configure the 3G / 4G Cisco router and reviewing the sample configuration.
    Would you mind tell me how can I get the hostname & password?
    Hostname is the telephone number?
    Password is the IME of sim card? how to check?

  • How do you reset the hp 6300 series ip address to connect toa new Cisco router?

    I am running on Windows 7 64-bit and cannot get the printer to hook up to the new router and work on my Homegroup to share the printer.  It shows a error code and says to troubleshoot.  It won't hook up to the CISCO router via ethernet cable.

    On the front of the printer: Setup > Network > Restore Defaults.
    Say thanks by clicking "Kudos" "thumbs up" in the post that helped you.

  • Cisco Router tried to take a firmware update and no longer works

    Ok so internet was working fine until Cisco Connect told me to take an update.  My connection is wired and there were no disruptions during the download.  Yet the download still failed and now my power light blinks continuously and there is no internet access.  I tried instructions on "How to unbrick your Cisco Router", even got them to work, it took the firmware update from the cmd line.  Still doesnt work though.  What's wrong with this thing and how do i fix it?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I ended up downloading a firmware utility program and was able to get it to reload. The power light became solid somewhere between 2-5 mins, however still didnt connect to the internet.  Found that all this factory resetting will change your Internet access name & password, with no way to find out the new one.  You have to remove the Cisco Connect program from your computer and reload it from the original disk.  Only then will you be up and running again.  While I appreciate the response Helm, I was way beyond a 30 second reset button solution when I posted this lol.

  • Not able to telnet or ssh to outside interface of ASA and Cisco Router

    Dear All
    Please help me with following question, I have set up testing lab, but still not work.
    it is Hub and spoke site to site vpn case, connection between hub and spoke is metro-E, so we are using private ip for outside interface at each site.
    Hub -- Juniper SRX
    Spoke One - Cisco ASA with version 9.1(5)
    spoke two - Cisco router with version 12.3
    site to site vpn has been successful established. Customer would like to telnet/ssh to spoke's outside ip from Hub(using Hub's outside interface as source for telnet/ssh), or vise versa. Reason for setting up like this is they wants to be able to make configuration change even when site to site vpn is down. Sound like a easy job to do, I tried for a long time, search this forum and google too, but still not work.
    Now I can successfully telnet/ssh to Hub SRX's outside interface from spoke (ASA has no telnet/ssh client, tested using Cisco router).
    Anyone has ever done it before, please help to share your exp. Does Cisco ASA or router even support it?
    When I tested it, of cause site to site vpn still up and running.
    Thanks
    YK

    Hello YK,
    On this case on the ASA, you should have the following:
    CConfiguring Management Access Over a VPN Tunnel
    If your VPN tunnel terminates on one interface, but you want to manage the ASA by accessing a different interface, you can identify that interface as a management-access interface. For example, if you enter the ASA from the outside interface, this feature lets you connect to the inside interface using ASDM, SSH, Telnet, or SNMP; or you can ping the inside interface when entering from the outside interface. Management access is available via the following VPN tunnel types: IPsec clients, IPsec LAN-to-LAN, and the AnyConnect SSL VPN client.
    To specify an interface as a mangement-only interface, enter the following command:
    hostname(config)# management access management_interface
    where management_interface specifies the name of the management interface you want to access when entering the security appliance from another interface.
    You can define only one management-access interface
    Also make sure you have the pertinent configuration for SSH, telnet, ASDM and SNMP(if required), for a quick test you can enable on your lab Test:
      SSH
    - ssh 0 0 outside
    - aaa authentication ssh console LOCAL
    - Make sure you have a default RSA key, or create a new one either ways, with this command:
        *crypto key generate rsa modulus 2048
    Telnet
    - telnet 0 0 outside
    - aaa authentication telnet console LOCAL
    Afterwards, if this works you can define the subnets that should be permitted.
    On the router:
    !--- Step 1: Configure the hostname if you have not previously done so.
    hostname Router
    !--- aaa new-model causes the local username and password on the router
    !--- to be used in the absence of other AAA statements.
    aaa new-model
    username cisco password 0 cisco
    !--- Step 2: Configure the router's DNS domain.
    ip domain-name yourdomain.com
    !--- Step 3: Generate an SSH key to be used with SSH.
    crypto key generate rsa
    ip ssh time-out 60
    ip ssh authentication-retries 3
    !--- Step 4: By default the vtys' transport is Telnet. In this case, 
    !--- Telnet and SSH is supported with transport input all
    line vty 0 4
    transport input All
    *!--- Instead of aaa new-model, the login local command may be used.
    no aaa new-model
    line vty 0 4
      login local
    Let me know how it works out!

  • Do you need a cisco router at remote sites when using VRF BGP?

    Hello.....
    If you could refer to the attached document and read the following... I need to know if a CISCO router is required for each of the sites.   OR does the ISP (Provider) provide the only required Router in the private cloud?
    We want to replace the Cisco 891 with a PepLink but I don't know if we can do that.  Can anyone jump in and help me understand?
    When we hear about VRF, its almost synonymous to MPLS VPN. Virtual Routing and Forwarding is commonly used by Service Providers to provide services within an MPLS cloud with multiple customers. The most interesting feature of this is that, VRF allows creation of multiple routing tables within a single router. This means that overlapping use of IP addresses from different customers is possible. Some enterprises use VRF to seggrate their services like VOIP, wireless, geographical location and other varieties.

    Whether you can replace the 891 device with another device boils down to a single question: Do you need to run BGP with the Service Provider in order to use their service. If you need to run a routing protocol with your service provider, your service is likely a L3VPN (IP VPN) solution ( i.e. you inject your site's routes into the providers L3VPN session, they use MP-BGP+VRF for segmentation within their network).
    If, however, they just drop you a L2 connection and provide L2 emulated services ( e.g. L2VPN or VPLS ) across their network, then your device can be whatever you want it to be.
    From your device's perspective, it is not VRF aware. That is, it does not know about how the service provider segments your service from another customers. In the L3VPN case, your device is routing-protocol aware. In the L2VPN case, your device is not routing protocol aware and does not need to form adjacency with the service provider's equipment.

  • How do I make airport time capsule work with Linksys cisco router?

    Hi all.
    I bought an airport time capsule 3T and want to connect it to the internet, using a macbook with OS X 10.9.2. Currently I am using a Linksys Cisco router model WAG54G2.
    I followed the steps of the setup airport guide: Connected the WAN port of the airport with an ethernet port on the router, plugged in the power cable, filled in the internet username and password. In Airport Utility I can see the airport and the internet icon, both with green dots most of the time. But it seems to disconnect every minute or so, green dots turning orange and the status light on the airport flashing orange. The internet light on the linksys also goes on and off. When the internet is on, it is quite slow.
    Advice is welcome!
    Kees

    No guarantees here. AirPort Utility 6.3.1 is a big drop down from the 5.x versions in Leopard and Snow Leopard.
    Hold in the reset button on the back of the Time Capsule for 9-10 seconds and release
    Allow a full minute for the TC to restart to a slow, blinking amber light
    Click the AirPort icon at the top of the screen and wait a few seconds for a listing of New AirPort Base Station to appear. Just below that, click on Time Capsule.
    The example below shows an AirPort Express. You will see Time Capsule.
    As soon as you click on the Time Capsule, AirPort Setup will open up automatically and take a minute to analyze the network....and probably suggest that the Time Capule will be configured to "extend"....which is wrong.
    Click the Other Options button at the lower left
    Click Add to an existing network
    Next to Connect To.....select the wireless network name from the drop down list....if it appears. Otherwise type in the exact name of the wireless network.
    Click Next
    Confirm any settings again and wait to see if AirPort Utility 6.3.1 will allow the Time Capsule to join the wireless network.
    You have about a 1 in 5 chance that this will occur.
    Post back on your results.

  • HT5569 Yesterday, my ability to receive gmail, facebook, safari,etc.ceased on my ipad2. The wifi shows it is connected and the cisco router works ok with another computer connection.  Can anyone tell me what I need to do with ipad in order to get it worki

    Yesterday, my ability to receive gmail,facebook,safari,etc. ceased to perform  The wifi connections shows that  it is connected but I cannot get through the internet .  I use a Cisco router and it is working fine with another computer and also a printer. I contacted the internet provider and they show the ipad at the router but not out through the internet. Also, yesterday my wife eliminated some programs(games,etc) from the ipad.  Anway, I am thinking I am missing some setting that is not turned on as everything seems to be working fine.

  • How can i get the password of Cisco router ?

    My Cisco router user name and password forgot. Can anyone help me to reset cisco router password ? Thanks.

    Many routers can have a master reset done to them by finding the little hole/button on the back of the device and holding it down with your finger/a pen or something and counting to about 30. From there you will need to research what the default master password'/username is to enter the gateway .
    I am not affiliated with Best Buy nor have I ever been employed by Best Buy. All of my thoughts and posts are of my own opinion and personal experience.
    I may not always know the right answer, but I will always tell you what I do know. I also do free computer analysis and consultation via private message.

    Cisco Router and Security Device Manager (SDM) is installed on this device.
    This feature requires the one-time use of the username "cisco"
    with the password "cisco". The default username and password have a privilege level of 15.
    Please change these publicly known initial credentials using SDM or the IOS CLI.
    Here are the Cisco IOS commands.
    username <myuser>  privilege 15 secret 0 <mypassword>
    no username cisco
    Replace <myuser> and <mypassword> with the username and password you want to use.
    For more information about SDM please follow the instructions in the QUICK START

    Username:

    If IME is not connecting, is it giving you some sort of error?
    Do you have ASDM launcher loaded? if so, does it also fail to connect?
    When you launch IME are you prompted for a password, is that failing on the password entry or does it simply fail to connect to the device?
    I have not been able to access my NME via https either, I get a Java error, but I pretty much always use Cisco IME to access my NME module so I have not chased down the Java issue.

  • How to setup Guest Network Name in Cisco Router

    Hello everyone!
    The first. Sorry my english =)
    I want tald you how to change guest network name in cisco (what have different name)
    What we need.
    1. Cisco Connect for Mac OSX (i use snow leopard and Cisco Connect for E3000)
    2. Terminal
    Okay. Let's go.
    1. Install Cisco Connect for OSX
    2. After setup - slighty setup your cisco router (give something name and password), then, when cisco connect say you "You now connected the internet" and going to main screen - exit from cisco connect
    3. Open Terminal (Or you can use Finder (go to Application, show package content Cisco Connect))
    4. Go to /Application/Cisco Connect.app/Contents/Resources/lcid/<your setup language, for english - go 1033>/
    5. Edit resource_strings.pus (vi resource_strings.pus)
    6. Change "-guest" in string <LocalizableString RcFileId='10019' BaseTextHash='0xA65E286D' BaseText='-guest'/> for something what you want. For example, i changed for ' Guest Network'
    7. Save
    8. Open Cisco Setup
    9. Go to router configuration and change desired name. I changed to 'Grizlly Bear'
    10. After setup name - go to Guest Setting and Enable. As you can si, your guest network name set as 'Grizlly Bear Guest Network'
    11.Exit Cisco Setup
    12. Go to web interface setup
    13. Setup Wifi manual and change SSID for diferent names. I change 5Gh to 'Grizlly Bear Hi-Speed Network' and 2.4GHz to 'Grizlly Bear Main Network'
    14. Setup your hostname for all services (fileserver, media server, etc)
    Woala!
    We have three diferent names network!
    Questions?

    In order to enable Guest networking, the AirPort Extreme must be configured as your "main" Internet router. In this configuration, Connection Sharing = Share a Public IP address. The Extreme would be connected directly to the Internet modem and NOT downstream of another router with NAT enabled.
    In this configuration, the Guest network would provide access ONLY to the Internet and NOT to your LAN.

  • Problems connecting to a Open Network via Wi-fi on Cisco Router

    Hi everyone, I know I'm new here but I'm in need of your help, so if you can assist please do so as I cannot live without wi-fi and might have to go back to my nokia again if I can't sort this out.
    Vodafone finally released the Iphone on their network in Ireland today and I've picked a 3gs up straight away.
    At work I have a wi-fi network with a CISCO router (I have no access to the router as only IT do and they won't change anything to satisfy me and my Iphone anyways). This network has no encryption whatsoever and its free to join, you don't need any password or anything. My nokia at the start couldn't connect as it said that the network needed a pre shared key, this isn't true and in the end it was just change a setting to no auth required for it to log into the network and work perfectly.
    Today I got to work and the Iphone can't connect to the network, just says it can't join the network. I cannot find anything about authentication on the settings of the phone nor can I work around this at all. I've had a Ipod touch for (the 2nd gen) for over 2 years and I gave up trying to set it up at work because I just couldn't find what was wrong with it, I ended up almost not using it other than when traveling or on the gym.
    So first question is there any way I can access the authentication settings for wi-fi connections on the Iphone? Maybe its just a little change that is needed like the nokia.
    Has anyone experienced this problem on a open network that they cannot join?
    Any other sugestions? Anything really?
    Thank you very much for your time guys, I would really really appreciate your help on this.
    Regards,
    Rod
    PS: I've also tried to install the Iphone configuration utility however I don't know how to access the profiles on the phone, anyone can help with this so I can try the profile I've created?
    I don't think it is going to work because the options available on the configuration utility are basicly the same available on the Iphone itself.
    Anyone has any sugestion on how to solve this problem??? Thanks very much.
