Before hangs in the log comes next:

Excluding a problem with the hardware, it can be routine? Can this be a hacker or virus attack among users?

Need more info

Need more info. the config looks ok except there's no rate limit on the upstream. can you send a show ver, show log and show clock?
are you running bpi on the modems? the error you pointed out just shows your sending modems 2.0 files and that wouldn't cause the reset.
sh proc cpu, what's the ilde delta? that would help you know if it's hacker related. you have access list 111 on the cable interface, but nothing on your ethernet and that's where all your traffic goes. should take a look at that too ;-)

This can be icmp flood or ddos?

old firmware

you have very old firmware, i think that current is : 2.0.1.11P01.PRRU, try to update, maybe helps.

cmcaldas
upgrade....

Marve's right. you do have old firmware and the one he mentioned is the current release. besides the upgrade, add the rate limit on each upstream port. the whole sh proc cpu would say what task is highest. with 344 modems, you should be doing beter than 59% idle.
add your email address and one of us should be able to send you the newer code

Kostua
Address

my mail kostua_p(at)mail.ru thanks!

cmcaldas
sent

let me know if you got it and it fixed your problem

Kostua
I have no firmware update.

I have no firmware update. The reason was to flood ethernet interface CMTS

cmcaldas
firmware

double check, sent it again and use wireshark to see what's flooding the data port. when you run a show proc cpu, what is the delta idle % and the tnetTask %

Kostua
Some problem

Met the description of the problem here -> http://sysadmins.ru/viewtopic.php?t=202506 with a new version of firmware

uPnP "flood"

Hi,

I had the same problem on our BSR1000 a couple of years ago.
The BSR rebooted witout any warning very often, every 1-3 hours.
A Motorola technican and I was troubleshooting for a couple of days before we found the problem.

The BSR was flooded by packets on port 1900 (Plug-and-Play, uPnP) from the CPEs, and rebooted after a while.

What we did was that we added another filter in the cablemodems on port 1900 to prevent the uPnP-packets reaching the network and also the BSR.
Then the problem was solved i our case :-)
The BSR has been stable since then, for 2 years now...

Hope this helps in solving your problem!

Me too!

Hi,

It seems that I'm having the same issue. Could anyone help me with this filter? Where is it done? I'm having it on an ARRIS 1500. Here is the entire error:

EH_event: fatal event: System error, EPC: 80116724, CR: 00000010, BadVaddr: 00000009, SR: 1000ff03

I also saw this:

freeing buffer twice 0xa0770800, caller 0x8011a494, callers caller 0x801a467c

Thanks,
Eric
