All:
My company has an 881-w ISR that provides wireless and wired network functions for our small office (about 20 users). I was attempting to create a new VLAN (another story), and was able to create the VLAN (4) and assign it a new IP. However, when i came in today, and when i attempted to connect to the ISR, the serial console started spewing this over and over:
*Feb 8 13:31:32.479: %SYS-2-MALLOCFAIL: Memory allocation of 8 bytes failed from 0x81528DF0, alignment 0

Now, I did leave the console session up overnight, as that's the only thing that I can think of. As expected, our service contract had expired. I did reboot the ISR, and I am looking to see if this can be fixed, or symptomatic of a larger issue, and time to replace? At this point i can't even get it to stop, and thus cannot login.
Thanks

Ben,
Do you have the output of the 'show version' from this device? This type of issue is generally a software bug, however with just the error messages I cannot tell what may be causing them. If you can capture the 'show version' and upload that we should be able to get a better idea as to what is causing these errors.
