Solved: named extended access-list in 7200

apingleton · ‎10-11-2012

Hello,

I've got a 7200 vxr that I'm trying to create a named extended access-list in.

I got to conf t

if I go into ip after that the only commands available for access-list are log-update, logging, and resequence.

so if I go back to the main config menu access-list is an available command

but then from the main config menu, if I type: access-list extended eth0_in it says invalid input detected at the carrot marker which is under the first character of the work extended.

also, at the main config menu, if I type: ip access-list extended eth0_in it again give me the invalid input detected at the word extended.

I don't understand what I am missing to get this to work.

I would greatly appreciate any help anyone could give me on this.

Thanks,

Allen

Hello Allen,

>> OMEGA-edge(boot)

your router hasn't loaded a full IOS image this is the meaning of the (boot), so you have a more basic problem then named extended access-list.

check with

show version

show bootvar

you need then to find out if a complete IOS image is present in flash

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Hello Allen,

Its rather strange honstly because I have tried it on my router and its working fine

ip access-list ?

extended Extended Access List

log-update Control access list log updates

logging Control access list logging

resequence Resequence Access List

standard Standard Access Lis

also I have copied and past your command "ip access-list extended eth0_in"

and it worked just fine on my router .

Can you try it again and copy and post the out come here

Sure here is the command you listed above:

OMEGA-edge(boot)#conf t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

OMEGA-edge(boot)(config)#ip access-list ?

log-update Control access list log updates

logging Control access list logging

resequence Resequence Access List

OMEGA-edge(boot)(config)#ip access-list

Here is the command trying to make the ACL:

OMEGA-edge(boot)(config)#ip access-list extended eth0_in

^

% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.

This is very confusing.

Thank you for your advice on this,

Allen

Hello Giuseppe

Is it possible that Allen has a corrupted IOS image in his flash ? which is resulting this problem

Hello Allen,

>> System image file is "bootflash:c7200-kboot-mz.123-6.bin"

^^

notice the boot in the image filename your router is not running a full IOS image, it is just a bootloader with limited functionality

post

dir bootflash:

dir slot0:

dir slot1:

dir /all

Ahmed:

the full IOS image can be missing or corrupted as you noted.

In a device like this the full IOS image is usually on a PCMCIA flash card that can be easily removed (slot0: or slot1:)

Example:

taken from a C7200 with a full IOS image (some time ago)

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to finish this up. You were right Giuseppe, it wasn't loading the actual IOS image into it.

The router was a spare of someone else in the company given to me to use and they grabbed one that had no image on it.

I've got another one now that works perfectly.

Thank both of you very much for your help with this, and your valuable time in doing so,

Allen
