Dear all,

when we trying to upgrade our pix software from 6.2(3) to 6.2(5) using monitor mode

we are facing the following problem

monitor>

monitor> int 1

0: i8255X @ PCI(bus:0 dev:5 irq:12)

1: i8255X @ PCI(bus:0 dev:3 irq:255)

2: i8255X @ PCI(bus:0 dev:2 irq:255)

3: i8255X @ PCI(bus:0 dev:1 irq:12)

Ethernet auto negotiation timed out.

Ethernet port 1 could not be initialized.

monitor>

can anybody have idea about this problem

Thanks in advance

Regards

Nataraj

There could be 2 reasons for this :

Check the speed/duplex setting on the switch.

Most of the time, its a faulty cable issue. Please ensure that the cable is good.

I put my bet on the 2nd point. If you are connecting the pix directly to the PC, do use cross cable. Also int 1 means 2nd interface of the Pix.

If you have the version 6.2(3) you can upgrade you iso using the config mode instead of the monitor mode

use the command

copy tftp flash
