Ruckus ICX7250 Stack Replacement

irakli_gvishian

Hello,

We have 2 Ruckus ICX7250 switches, which are stacked. Firmware is in Router mode, Version is SPR08090mc.bin (Non-UFI). There is the configuration:

stack unit 1
module 1 icx7250-48-port-management-module
module 2 icx7250-sfp-plus-8port-80g-module
priority 255
stack-port 1/2/1
stack-port 1/2/3
stack unit 2
module 1 icx7250-48-port-management-module
module 2 icx7250-sfp-plus-8port-80g-module
priority 250
stack-port 2/2/1
stack-port 2/2/3
stack enable
stack mac 78a6.e103.3b58

Several ports on the second unit don't works. We have another new ICX7250 switch and we would like to replace that damaged switch by this one.

I have no experience in this direction and could you please describe required steps? How do I need to configure this new switch? Do I need to do just stack configuration or something else?

Thanks.

If you are replacing with the exact same model, the process is very easy. Simply put the same code on the replacement device, wipe the config (erase start) and swap it in. The existing stack will see the unit and push the config to it automatically.

Thanks for your response @BenBeck yes, they are the same. There are stacked devices:

And there is new one:

On stacked switches I have enabled Advanced Routing Features, do I need to enable license on new one or it take license from Unit 1 device?

BenBeck

No problem. Licenses are per unit, so you will need to install the license on the replacement unit.

Okay, then I will just erase the configuration from new one and swap it. And after that I will activate Advanced Routing Features on new Unit 2.

Thanks @BenBeck for your assist!

Hi Ben

Could you please advise me on this?

I'm in a similar situation to the OP, we had a switch completely fail, could you please advise what the "put the same code on the replacement" switch means?

Also, we have a 10GB licence, do we apply that before or after the procedure you mentioned.

Thank you for your assistance.

Hey @StuieB

You want to upgrade the replacement unit to be running the same exact code as the existing stack. You can issue 'show version' on the stack to confirm the code level. If you are not comfortable with the operation, I would recommend opening a case and an engineer can walk you through it.
