PIX 515E Spontaneously reboots |
|
|
I've recently acquired a 515E with PIX software version 7.0(1).
I've noticed after an indeterminate amount of time (5 minutes to
hours), the PIX will reboot itself.
When this happens, it usually takes a few tries for it to successfully
reboot, but it does eventually.
I've tried going back to the factory-default configuration (config
factory-default) but it still exhibits the same behavior.
Any ideas? Or is this just a defective unit that I need to get
replaced?
Thanks. |

Have you tried to turn it on with nothing connected to see if it still
reboots? I had some PIX 520s that rebooted do to virus activity before
from the internal network. A software upgrade resolved that issue.

| It does this without anything connected to any of the interfaces. |

One other thing I've noticed is that sometimes it waits at:
CISCO SYSTEMS PIX FIREWALL
Embedded BIOS Version 4.3.207 01/02/02 16:12:22.73
Compiled by morlee
for a long time (~1 minute), displays the message again, waits a bit,
and then manages to boot.
Could this be flakey RAM possibly? |
