Archive process hung on all cisco devices - help
I have Archive setup on all of my devices in the enviornment to archive configs via tftp to a server on the network. A team mate of mine elected to down that box because the "did no know what it was." Now I have a process hung on every one of my cisco devices that is preventing the archive from performing. I am hoping to find a way to stop this process short of a rebuild of every on of my devices.

Archive Config
Jan 2 10:26:53: %ARCHIVE_CONFIG-4-ARCHIVE_SKIPPED: Archive of router configuration was skipped due to a previous initiation.
Appologies, I assume most would realize this...but I meant to say "short of a REBOOT of every ONE of my devices". Symptom to too many things at once. Thanks.

Cisco Devices Syslog monitoring and user monitoring tools
Can anyone help me how to monitoring syslog and users log (which command use specific user). if any software or hardware need for this purpose we will purchace it. note that our network running all cisco devices (router, switch, ASA etc) and more then 200 devices are in our network.
thanks.Configuring Cisco Devices to Use a Syslog Server
Most Cisco devices use the syslog protocol to manage system logs and alerts. But unlike their PC and server counterparts, Cisco devices lack large internal storage space for storing these logs. To overcome this limitation, Cisco devices offer the following two options:
Internal buffer— The device's operating system allocates a small part of memory buffers to log the most recent messages. The buffer size is limited to few kilobytes. This option is enabled by default. However, when the device reboots, these syslog messages are lost.
Syslog— Use a UNIX-style SYSLOG protocol to send messages to an external device for storing. The storage size does not depend on the router's resources and is limited only by the available disk space on the external syslog server. This option is not enabled by default.
TIP
Before configuring a Cisco device to send syslog messages, make sure that it is configured with the right date, time, and time zone. Syslog data would be useless for troubleshooting if it shows the wrong date and time. You should configure all network devices to use NTP. Using NTP ensures a correct and synchronized system clock on all devices within the network. Setting the devices with the accurate time is helpful for event correlation.
To enable syslog functionality in a Cisco network, you must configure the built-in syslog client within the Cisco devices.
Cisco devices use a severity level of warnings through emergencies to generate error messages about software or hardware malfunctions. The debugging level displays the output of debug commands. The Notice level displays interface up or down transitions and system restart messages. The informational level reloads requests and low-process stack messages.
Configuring Cisco Routers for Syslog
To configure a Cisco IOS-based router for sending syslog messages to an external syslog server, follow the steps in Table 4-11 using privileged EXEC mode.
Table 4-11. Configuring Cisco Routers for Syslog
Step
Command
Purpose
1
Router# configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
2
Router(config)# service timestamps type datetime [msec] [localtime] [show-timezone]
Instructs the system to timestamp syslog messages; the options for the type keyword are debug and log.
3
Router(config)#logging host
Specifies the syslog server by IP address or host name; you can specify multiple servers.
4
Router(config)# logging trap level
Specifies the kind of messages, by severity level, to be sent to the syslog server. The default is informational and lower. The possible values for level are as follows:
Emergency: 0
Alert: 1
Critical: 2
Error: 3
Warning: 4
Notice: 5
Informational: 6
Debug: 7
Use the debug level with caution, because it can generate a large amount of syslog traffic in a busy network.
5
Router(config)# logging facility facility-type
Specifies the facility level used by the syslog messages; the default is local7. Possible values are local0, local1, local2, local3, local4, local5, local6, and local7.
6
Router(config)# End
Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
7
Router# show logging
Displays logging configuration.
Note
When a level is specified in the logging trap level command, the router is configured to send messages with lower severity levels as well. For example, the logging trap warning command configures the router to send all messages with the severity warning, error, critical, and emergency. Similarly, the logging trap debug command causes the router to send all messages to the syslog server. Exercise caution while enabling the debug level. Because the debug process is assigned a high CPU priority, using it in a busy network can cause the router to crash.
Example 4-12 prepares a Cisco router to send syslog messages at facility local3. Also, the router will only send messages with a severity of warning or higher. The syslog server is on a machine with an IP address of 192.168.0.30.
Example 4-12. Router Configuration for Syslog
Router-Dallas#
Router-Dallas#config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Router-Dallas(config)#logging 192.168.0.30
Router-Dallas(config)#service timestamps debug datetime localtime show-timezone
msec
Router-Dallas(config)#service timestamps log datetime localtime show-timezone msec
Router-Dallas(config)#logging facility local3
Router-Dallas(config)#logging trap warning
Router-Dallas(config)#end
Router-Dallas#show logging
Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
Console logging: level debugging, 79 messages logged
Monitor logging: level debugging, 0 messages logged
Buffer logging: disabled
Trap logging: level warnings, 80 message lines logged
Logging to 192.168.0.30, 57 message lines logged
Configuring a Cisco Switch for Syslog
To configure a Cisco CatOS-based switch for sending syslog messages to an external syslog server, use the privileged EXEC mode commands shown in Table 4-12.
Table 4-12. Configuring a Cisco Switch for Syslog
Step
Command
Purpose
1
Switch>(enable) set logging timestamp {enable | disable}
Configures the system to timestamp messages.
2
Switch>(enable) set logging server ip-address
Specifies the IP address of the syslog server; a maximum of three servers can be specified.
3
Switch>(enable) set logging server severity server_severity_level
Limits messages that are logged to the syslog servers by severity level.
4
Switch>(enable) set logging server facility server_facility_parameter
Specifies the facility level that would be used in the message. The default is local7. Apart from the standard facility names listed in Table 4-1, Cisco Catalyst switches use facility names that are specific to the switch. The following facility levels generate syslog messages with fixed severity levels:
5: System, Dynamic-Trunking-Protocol, Port-Aggregation-Protocol, Management, Multilayer Switching
4: CDP, UDLD
2: Other facilities
5
Switch>(enable) set logging server enable
Enables the switch to send syslog messages to the syslog servers.
6
Switch>(enable) Show logging
Displays the logging configuration.
Example 4-13 prepares a CatOS-based switch to send syslog messages at facility local4. Also, the switch will only send messages with a severity of warning or higher. The syslog server is on a machine with an IP address of 192.168.0.30.
Example 4-13. CatOS-Based Switch Configuration for Syslog
Console> (enable) set logging timestamp enable
System logging messages timestamp will be enabled.
Console> (enable) set logging server 192.168.0.30
192.168.0.30 added to System logging server table.
Console> (enable) set logging server facility local4
System logging server facility set to
Console> (enable) set logging server severity 4
System logging server severity set to <4>
Console> (enable) set logging server enable
System logging messages will be sent to the configured syslog servers.

Tool to Collect Inventory of Cisco devices in Network
Hi,
Would like to check if there is any free tool available which can help me to collect Inventory of my all Cisco Devices in my network.
Please help
Regards
MACFor windows i only used the trial of solarwinds (wich is really good.) it also has free tools.
If you are only looking for inventory purposes or you are looking for a monitoring tool too?
For inventory you can use the ip address tracker (a free tool from solarwinds.)
PRTG from Paessler will let you monitor up to 10 devices for free. if you want more you have to pay.
Spiceworks (never try it) but i think its decent for inventory but if you want to monitor the devices you have you have to buy extra plugins (i think, not really sure.)
And that´s what comes to my mind for now

ISE version 1.0 - Unable to get management access for cisco devices
Hi All,
I want to manage all cisco devices with read and write privilege with ISE 1.0.
Is this functionality is available in this version?
I configured the 2960 switch. On switch redius test is successful. When I telnet to the switch, it ask for username and password. But message is authorization fail. But on ISE shows authentication is successful.
Is it configuration issue or this feature is not available in this version?
Regards,

You will have to create an authorization profile to send back the privilege level for the user:
Here is the attribute (cisco-av-pair) you will have to send back:

My movie I rented via my iphone will not finish processing it has been almost 24 hours and I can't watch it on any of my devices help
I get as far as what appears to be restoring my phone then when the software has downloaded, iTunes insists on my phone accepting it's access. I had carried out this action two weeks ago when I had the same issue on my phone and managed to restore it successfully, but it isn't happening now. I have updated iTunes to the latest version since the last time, and also my iPhone to the latest version. I have had endless trouble with this phone so having gone through all the steps suggested in various forums it is clear that it is an issue with the phone, not helped by the recent iOS and iTunes updates with stricter security.

I need help understanding how the Apple components connect to create a whole system across all my devices?
Is there a resource that describes current system and associated functionality?
For example:
Buy A, B, C to achieve "X"
You will need:
an internet provider which supports <specs>
add D to achieve "Y"
You will need:
an internet provider which supports <specs>
add "E" to achieve "Z"
You will need:
an internet provider which supports <specs>
For example, I am looking at the Gen 6 Airport extreme. For intended performance do I need broadband? if so what are the specs, or will basic internet service suffice? Do I need the internet provider's modem or does the Airport extreme replace that? And then I think, if I am doing this, I should also look at Apple TV....What do I need and Why? Then I look at the New Desk top coming out in the fall, and I think well, if I wait and get this, what does this component do for the system, and what becomes redundant? What does this awesome desktop do for my ability to sit and use a new macbook air when I travel or sit on the couch in my PJs?
If there was a place that plainly stated "if you buy the new dektop you can configure a system including only these components and achieve <this result> and by adding <additional components> you will achieve this result.
I have been to the genius store a few times, but I come out of there more confused unless I have SPECIFIC questions or already know what to buy.
A "System Configuration App" would be a really great sales tool--Just saying.I have no idea what "fully optimized" means.
No Apple device will let you watch broadcast TV. The Apple TV is a good option for watching streaming TV from iTunes, NetFlix and Hulu. If you want to watch from other sources, you may need to look at other devices.
Any Mac computer or iPad will allow you to surf the web.
What business software?
Time Capsule is a good option for back ups.
Update what across all devices?
For accessing documents from all devices, a service like Dropbox is your best bet.
I have no idea what "step as far away from an internet provider as possible" means. If you want Internet access, you need an Internet provider.
Lighting fast speed for what? Processor? The specs are listed for all devices in the Online Store. Internet? We're back to the service provider.
Technology changes. The only way to keep pace with it beyond a couple of years is to buy new stuff.
The bottom line is you need to look at the specs for devices availble and at your budget and decide what best meets your needs. If you are unable to do that on your own, there are lot of technology consultants out there who will, for a fee, look at your exact situation, make recommendations and even handle the purchase and set up. Perhaps that would be the best route for you.
Best of luck. -
I have an Airport Extreme as my router and am using time capsule to extend the network in my new house. My ISP is only providing me 4-5 ip addresses and wants me to set up my router to issue out new ip addresses for all my devices.How do I fix this?Help.
They said I need to change my settings to NAT settings. I haven't been able to figure out or find anything. I have also spoken to Apple Support on the phone for hours without being able to figure out how to do this ( i don't think he knew much either lol.) Please help me because I've got about 15-20 devices in my house that require to be connected to the internet and this is just making things ridiculously slow and painful for me.
Thanks!It is on DHCP & NAT under router mode yet my isp is still the one issuing ip addresses to my devices instead of the router issuing them

I am using an iPhone 4S with 16gb memory. I did not yet update to iOS 8. I'm using 7.1.2. I have never had any problems previously using 3G or wifi. We just moved and have a new Netgear router supplied by our new ISP. We have ADSL connection. The router seems to be working fine for all the devices in the house. At any time we may have 2 or 3 laptops connected, as well as Kindle Fires, iPod Touches, and my husband's iPhone (which is the same make, model, year as mine). My iPhone will connect, but usually within minutes after connecting my iPhone 4S (though sometimes 30 minutes or more later), it kicks everyone offline and the router needs to be restarted. The router shows appropriate green lights and I can see it on my list of available networks, but if I try to connect I get the "unable to connect to this network" message until we restart the router. No one else is able to reconnect until the restart, either.
I have tried resetting network settings on my iPhone. I have completely turned off my iPhone and the router. I have talked with someone at our ISP and they did a reset of the router with me. They think the router is bad. But it works completely fine for everyone else in the house, so I can't help but think we are having a connection issue between the router and my iPhone.
Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!Is her iPhone in a case by any chance? If so, remove the case and try again. How does her iPhone work in free Wi-Fi locations?
Try resetting the iPhone...
Press and hold the Home and On/Off buttons simultaneously until you see the Apple logo, then release. This may take up to 10 seconds. This is the equivalent of a re-boot and you will not lose any data.
If none of the above work take it to an Apple store or AASP for evaluation. She will not be charged folr this and they will suggest a solution if there is a fault. -
Hi there
I have changed to a new internet provider, and they configured my router (which was working fine previously with my Apple devices)
It is a D-Link router, and it is connected to the internet via PPPOE. (previous provider did not have this PPPOE configuration)
The technician did the configuration and the Wifi works fine for all my devices including laptops, and friends who use Android.
My Iphone, Ipad, and my friends' ones are the only things that seem not to work correctly.
They can find the network on the router. It then connects for a short time, then either after a few mins of browsing on Safari, or any attempt to download an App or update an App, it fails.
To summarise - All non-apple devices function fine and connect to router. Apple Iphones and Ipads find and connect to Wifi, but the internet works temporarily on browser, and any App update or download will fail. (Wi-fi remains connected)
I am hoping it is a simple router configuration issue and the installation technician missed something. Has anyone ever come across this?
what I have tried - Rebooting router, restarting Ipad, resetting network settings and other things, but I am almost certain it is a router configuration thing.
Just hope someone can help, because I have called my internet provider and if they will charge for a call-out if they find it is not ''their fault'.
Really really appreciate any answers to this one.Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

I got a new email address and I reset the iPod so it already has the new address. I can't seem to change the address on my iPhone5 or iPad. So please help! How do I change the address for my apple ID and icloud on all my devices? I don't want to reset my iPad and phone just to set new email address I can't do updates without the password and I have forgotten my password for my old email address. Please Help! Getting frustarted!
If the old ID ("email address") is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Mail in 10.7.5 suddenly off line on all my devices....HELP
iMac (24-inch Early 2008) running OS 10.7.5
MacBook Pro (15-inch Mid 2010) running OS 10.7.5
iPad 2 (wifi) running iOS 6.1.3
iPad 4 (wifi) running iOS 6.1.3
Here's the problem. I have internet connection. But suddenly today all my devices are off line in Mail.
Have re-set my dsl modem multiple times.
Ran Connection Doctor and got red lights on all 4 of my mail accounts (iCloud, 2x verizon addresses, and a work email address)
Checked all the settings and as far as I can figure, the are what I have been using.
EXCEPT......when I open the EDIT OUTGOING SERVER area of the Mail preferenced for my iCloud account, it choses my work account server. I re-set and save it. But it's right back to the wrong server when I go back to check. WHAT"S UP with that??????
Anybody have any insights into this problem?
Yes, I can get my email on the individual websites, but that means signing on and off of 4 websites every 15 minutes or so. Not gonna work.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Signed,
Tearing my hair outHello Snappi,
Thank you for all the information you provided about what is going on with Mail on all your Apple Devices. I found an article with steps that I think might help.
I recommend reviewing the article, but I found some steps that sound like they apply specifically to what you are experiencing in the section titled "Mail Connection Doctor shows one or more red dots in the account Status column>Click here if your Incoming and Outgoing email account settings are correct, but the issue persists>Click here if a 'Could not connect to this (server type) server…' message appears":
Click here if a "Could not connect to this (server type) server…" message appears
Check for third-party firewall software
Third-party firewall software, such as Little Snitch or Symantec Norton Personal Firewall, could be blocking the necessary ports. If such software is installed, make sure the firewall is not blocking these ports:
ports 25, 465, and 587 (for sending email via SMTP)
ports 143 and 993 (if you use IMAP email)
ports 110 and 995 (if you use POP email)
If you're not sure how to enable the correct ports, try disabling the third-party firewall completely, then test for the Mail issue. Note: The Mac OS X v10.6 firewall does not interfere with ports needed to send email.
Check for Internet Service Provider port blockingYour Internet Service Provider may be blocking the SMTP ports needed to send email.You can use Apple's MobileMe service to find out if your Internet Service Provider is blocking the sending email protocol SMTP:
Open Network Utility in the Utilities folder—in Finder, choose Go > Utilities (or press Shift-Command-U).
Click the "Port Scan" tab.
Enter "smtp.me.com" in the "Enter an Internet or IP address to scan for open ports" field.
