Command History
Usage Guidelines The crashinfo file saves information that helps Cisco technical support representatives to debug
problems that caused the Cisco IOS image to fail (crash). The access point writes the crash
information to the console at the time of the failure, and the file is created the next time you boot the
Cisco IOS image after the failure (instead of while the system is failing). The filename will be
filename_yyyymmdd-hhmmss, where y is year, m is month, d is date, h is hour, and s is seconds.
Examples In this example, the access point creates a crashinfo file called crashdata in the default flash memory
device if a system crash occurs:
ap(config)# exception crashinfo file flash:crashinfo
Related Commands
device:filename Specifies the flash device and file name to be used for storing
the diagnostic information. The colon is required.
