I just realized that Cisco 3825 actually has only 2 NM slots, it appeared to have 3 NM slots but only slot 1 and slot 2 have an internal connector, the third unnumbered slot only has a bracket within.
My Cisco 3825 crashed, perhaps my NMs did not installed properly….I am not sure.
Slot 1 was NM-8A/S
Slot 2 was NM-4A/S
I swapped the position:
Slot 1 is NM-4A/S
Slot 2 is NM-8A/S
Here’s the output while router is rebooting:
