Using the crashinfo Files
This is an example of the output when the packet coming in on port 1 in VLAN 5 is sent to an address
already learned on the VLAN on another port. It should be forwarded from the port on which the address
was learned.

Using the crashinfo Files
The crashinfo files save information that helps Cisco technical support representatives to debug
problems that caused the Cisco IOS image to fail (crash). The switch writes the crash information to the
console at the time of the failure. The switch creates two types of crashinfo files:
• Basic crashinfo file—The switch automatically creates this file the next time you boot up the Cisco
IOS image after the failure.
• Extended crashinfo file—In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)SEC or later, the switch automatically
creates this file when the system is failing.
Basic crashinfo Files
The information in the basic file includes the Cisco IOS image name and version that failed, a list of the
processor registers, and a stack trace. You can provide this information to the Cisco technical support
representative by using the show tech-support privileged EXEC command.
Basic crashinfo files are kept in this directory on the flash file system:
flash:/crashinfo/.
The filenames are crashinfo_n where n is a sequence number.
Each new crashinfo file that is created uses a sequence number that is larger than any previously existing
sequence number, so the file with the largest sequence number describes the most recent failure. Version
numbers are used instead of a timestamp because the switches do not include a real-time clock. You
cannot change the name of the file that the system will use when it creates the file. However, after the
