Problem with Token-Ring interface on Cisco 2612 Router - Interface down, line protocol down.
I have a Cisco 2612 router which died, an IBM MAU which also died, and I got a used replacement of both. The router was basically used to connect a token ring subnet w/ our AS/400 on it, to our ethernet segment.
The physical connectivity is:
AS/400(tokenring) ------ IBM MAU ------ (TR-port-> 2612 Router <--Eth0 port) ------ Ethernet segment
This set up used to work before the original router died. Now I can't seem to get the Token-ring segment working. My token ring interface (TokenRing0/0) just sits on this status:
TokenRing0/0 down, Line protocol down.
If I connect the AS/400 to the MAU as well, then the status says :
TokenRing0/0 reset, Line protocol down.
Here is an output of my status right now, with only the Router connected to the MAU:
bal-int-router#show int TokenRing0/0
TokenRing0/0 is down, line protocol is down

The reason you aren't seeing any thing else in the log is because of this line.
Buffer logging: disabled
Go into "conf t" and enter "logging buffered" to turn that on.
This link suggests that the MAU may be a problem.
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/cisintwk/itg_v1/tr1906.htm#wp1020648
It does mention that the MAU may need to be initialized.
Cheers,

After switching the interface back to half-duplex, doing a shut, a clear interface tokenring0/0 and then doing a no-shut, i'm now getting a lobe-test error... thats better, at least i'm getting somewhere now....

Perhaps I shall try another cable/rj-45 adapter block to see if that helps?

Its working!
I switched back to the old mau, with another connector, and using some of the commands in that link, I was able to get it insert into the ring and go UP, UP..
Excellent. Thank you for your efforts, GRSTEED....

Also, can I just have this router connected to the MAU and nothing else and still get a link-state of up or do you need two systems to establish a ring?
