IOS upgrade for 2500

[samir khoury]

when I upgrade IOS on the 2500 to the ( c2500-g-l.122-29b ) image I lose my serial interfaces.

what am I doing wrong?

You may need a different feature set. What IOS were you running before?

[samir khoury]

I have multiple 2500 IOS and models, here is a list of some

c2500-i-l.112-18          cisco 2514

c2500-d-l.120-10          cisco 2514

igs-inr-l.111-6               cisco 2501

You need an 'IP' or higher feature set. Verify flash/RAM requirements.
