ICX 7150 missing address command

Jerry

When I try to add an IP address (IP Address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx. xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) I get invalid command for Address.

Looking in the menu of the IP command, there is no Address command listed.

How can I add an IP Address if there's not Address command?

Thanks.

With all the information you've given me, I was able to install the 8080f image and set the IP address, subnet, etc... Now I just need to update to the latest firmware. Thank you so much for all the help.

We would need some more details to help here. Could you share a screenshot or log of the steps you are taking? Otherwise I would advise opening a support case (see my signature).

Here’s the whole story.

I wanted to upgrade my switch to the latest firmware but the current firmware was too old.

So I upgraded the firmware on an ICX 7150 from 08.0.61cT211 to 08.0.90jT213. See below.

After the upgrade completed, all the IP information was gone. IP Address, Subnet, Gateway, DNS.

I tried to add it by entering the IP command and this is what I get.

When I look at the IP menu, the Address command is not listed. See below.

Why did the upgrade strip the IP info and how do I add it back?

It looks like you likely switched from switching code (allows a single global IP address) to routing code (where you address VEs or interfaces). Notice the code you are running now is SPR08090jufi.bin ('show flash' to check). The SPR denotes routing code. There is also a switching image which would have a name such as SPS08090jufi.bin (SPS denotes switching). What likely happened is you switched from an SPS image to an SPR image. The global IP address command is not valid in SPR image, therefore it failed to parse at bootup and the command is not available. To get yourself back up and running, you can do something like this:

conf t

int management 1

ip address <address> <subnet-mask>

You can then connect a laptop/computer to the mgmt port to gain connectivity and copy over the switching image (assuming that is what you want to run). Just make sure it is on the same subnet as what you configured. If you need any help with this, please feel free to open a support case (see my signature).

Did you upgrade from switch code to router code? You are now running router code on 8090.

You need to configure a VE interface, something like this

interface ve 1
ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0
!

and have a default route

ip route 0.0.0.0/0 192.168.1.1

Although I am not new to switches and CLI, I am new to Ruckus. This was the first Ruckus switch that I upgraded. I am not familiar with the difference between SPR and SPS but it sounds like I used the wrong image. Here's the information from a switch in another building.

BenBeck

We all start somewhere!

SPS - switching image

SPR - routing image

'show version' will tell you which one you are actually running. 'show flash' will show you what is stored in both partitions. You could certainly stick with the routing image if you would like, but your addressing strategy would need to change. As @pmonardo alluded, you could do something like this:

device(config)# vlan 1 name
device(config-vlan-1)# router-interface ve 1
device(config-vlan-1)# interface ve 1
device(config-vif-1)# ip address 172.16.201.2 255.255.255.0

You would then also need a default route:

device(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0/0 <gateway-ip-address>

I have 4 buildings with the same switches. I don't want to change the setup on just one of them. I am going to try reimaging it. Thank you for all your input. It helped a lot.

Jerry

Why do the other switches in the other buildings have both an SPR and an SPS image listed?

BenBeck

Out of the box, they generally have switching image on one partition and routing partition on the other. There is no issue with this. Once you start upgrading from patch to patch, it is common to have your old code image in secondary flash. You can issue something like 'copy fl fl secondary' to copy the primary image to secondary flash if you want them to match.

Jerry

If I'm upgrading a switch with an old version 08.0.61.Ct211 to the latest version, what would be the best way to go about it?

BenBeck

You will need to use 8080f as a step upgrade coming from that old of code. I would recommend something like this:

8061 > 8080f (non-ufi), make sure to wr mem > 8095g UFI

You can certainly open a case and we can help walk you through the first one.

Plus I learned a few things about Ruckus switches.
