2610XM with 2 port Analog WIC and NM-8AM-V2

scherndon

I'm trying to concurrently test both the WIC and NM access solutions in a 2610XM. Initially, the WICs were showing up without problems. With the IOS update to 12.3(8)T5 and setting the "modem country" command I was able to get the NM working.

However, now a "show modem" only gives me the NM (modems 1/0 through 1/7). "Show modem ver" similarly only lists slot 1.

I can manually view the WICs with "Show modem 0/0" but the summary views do not include these modems.

Is there some trick I'm missing with the WICs similar to the modem country command or the mica-modem commands in our AS5300s? Thanks

Do you see any error message about WIC-2AM while booting 2610XM? We need to see what "show diag", "show line" and "show version" reports from 2610XM. Pl. post it here.

For some reason the "show diag" output is not displayed in full. You can attach the show commands as .txt file with this message now. But show version only reports 4 terminal lines and 4 serail lines.. So need to know which NM you have for modems? Is it NM-8AM or NM-8A/S etc..

Pl. try to attach the information as a file..

I did not have the NM in the router at that time, I went back and was trying to get just the WIC-2AM (2 of them) modules working. After I did the "modem country" command, the NM was recognized without any problems.

I don't think that you need any commands to regognize WIC-2AM with NM modules like NM does.

So once you put NM and WIC togather and reboot the router, you will see some console message during booting if WIC-2AM is not recognized. Once the router is booted, issue "show diag" and see the slot status information in which WIC-2AM is installed. You can post console log and "show diag" here for review..may be attach it as a file.

I just tried out the following in my lab:

1) 12.3(8)T5 entbase image. When both the WIC-xAM & NM-xAM-V2 are inserted we see the exact same thing as you do, that is, in “show modem” only see the NM modems & not the WIC modems however we can see the WIC modem when executing “sh modem x/y”.

2) Now in the same setup as above remove the NM modems & just have the WIC modems, we see that other than the “sh modem” output most of the other modem output do not work (like sh modem ver / sh modem log etc).

We seem to be running into CSCea90584 that is not yet fixed. This bug explains what we see above.

Thanks, Mak

Thanks, I'm glad it's not just me. I looked that up in the bug toolkit but couldn't find anything. Is there another ID?

The Release-note says:

WIC-1AM/WIC-2AM modem(s) do not report modem state transitions or any other modem debugs (except for "debug confmodem"). The also are not displayed in "show modem" or "show modem operational-status" nor for CallTracker statistics.

Thanks, Mak
