We have a 7204VXR / NPE-G1 with 1GB RAM running 12.4(15)T5 which is
rebooting by itself every 4-5 days.
About 11 BGP peers, 4 GRE tunnels, 4 interfaces in use plus a T1,
pushing about 100Mbps traffic.
We've failed over to an identical standby router, all the same specs,
and the same thing happens!
Output interpreter of the crashinfo files states:
---
*%ERR-1-FATAL:* Fatal error interrupt
*Explanation:* This error message indicates a Hardware problem in the device.
*Recommended Action:* To troubleshoot try this:
1. Reload the device with no modules installed and check if the message appears.
2. Reload the device with each successive module and check to see if a certain
module or mis-seated module is causing this issue.

I'm thinking maybe a buffer is filling up. Little skittish about trying
to adjust buffers, though.
Thinking of putting 12.2(40) on the router, which has been running fine
in a separate environment on a 7206VXR/NPE400.
Cisco states that 12.2(4)BW or 12.2(8)B or later are required for an
NPE-G1. Not sure what the B means. Do you think 12.2(40) would work?
If anyone has any other tips or suggestions, they are welcome.
Thanks.
Adam
