I have two new 881 units and it appears that the crypto engine is not running on both units. Logs show that it is not even trying to connect. The MN=CISCO881-Sec-K9 V01 and I have bought these units in the past (1-2 years ago) and the advsecurity license was on by default. I have had no problems in the past with these units. The new Cisco license model has changed this to a more complecated task.
Now it seems like you have to tell the unit to use this IOS, but after jumping through all of these hoops it still states that it needs a reboot (did this several times and it state the same thing). I have read many blogs of people having simular issues, but no answer. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
I entered in the "lic boot mod c880-data level advsecurity" command and all aof the "end user" license agreement commands as well....
and rebooted the unit .... still does not work....
