Line protocol on Interface FastEthernet0, changed state to down and up

MuncH
Level 1
Level 1

Cisco c1710 Routers (Please find the attachment of the simple topology)
No routing protocols are configured yet.

R1#show ip interface brief
Ethernet0 10.0.0.1 YES NVRAM up up
FastEthernet0 192.168.1.100 YES NVRAM up up

R2#show ip interface brief
Ethernet0 10.0.0.2 YES NVRAM up up
FastEthernet0 192.168.2.100 YES NVRAM up up

Note: Tried by changing the interfaces connected to neighbor router/switch from Ethernet0 to FastEthernet0 vice versa.

Issue:

Hello @MHM Cisco World @Kanan Huseynli @Georg Pauwen 
Thank you for the response.
Issue got resolved after changing the Router model from c1710 to Cisco 3725.
I found there was a duplex mismatch with my switch port.

Config speed and duplex 

Hi @MHM Cisco World,
Thanks for the quick response.
Speed is not set, and both routers are running on Full duplex.

Hardcode speed and check 

Hi @MHM Cisco World 
The c1710 router port fastEthernet 0, I can configure the speed but there is no option for duplex configuration.
On the other side (i86bi_Linux-L2-Adventerprisek9-ms.SSA.high_iron_20190423) Switch port ethernet 0, I can configure the duplex but there is no option for speed configuration.

please suugest further.

%LINK-5-UPDOWN Vs %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN
first is L1 and second is L2 issue 
but the it fastether I see this issue only in serial
can I see 
show interface fastether in both router ?

Hi,

better to use L3 IOU image (although it is not official cisco image) for router rather than something on dynamips.

HTH,
Please rate and mark as an accepted solution if you have found any of the information provided useful.

Hello,

what kind of cables are you using ? The router-to-router requires a crossover cable, the router-to-switch requires a straight cable. Check if your interfaces support the 'auto-mdix' command.

As I first guess' duplex/speed mismatch.

Great job friend 

Thanks for update  us

Have a nice day
