I have been getting pages of these lately.

Its a 7513 w/ dual RSP2 modules and 64mb RAM. Its running IOS 11.2(8) P w/

1 SSIP controller (8 Serial).
1 VIP2 controller (1 FastEthernet)(4 Serial).
1 FastEthernet/IEEE 802.3 interface(s)
12 Serial network interface(s)

Has anyone on the list come across this before?

Can you paste a 'sh buff' in here as it looks like you are out of buffers.
