Hello - this is taken from a Cisco router running IOS 12.1(6) IP build only. It almost looks like a reboot has been syslog'd, but this has happened a few times at odd times during the day (i.e. when the router is "up"). I know that the numbers inside the brackets are actually control characters, but I cannot tell if the interface/router is bouncing, or if this is a buffer overflow attack, or what. Please let me know what you think -
Thanks - syslog message follows:
