ICX 7150 - Always down after power outage. Manual reset no longer working

kcrum22 — Sun, 29 Dec 2024 20:11:41 GMT

Hello.

My switch always stops working after a power outage. I have previously been able to manually reset via direct connect with Putty. That is no longer working. I assume I need to load in new boot/image files but I have not been able to successfully do so via the instructions in older forum posts. Looking for any help I can get....

Thank you Imran. This set of instructions seems to be more of what I needed. I did not see this one previously.

I was able to get the switch working after about 50 reset attempts. Next time this happens, I will try to load in new software with the instructions above. If that does not work, I will repost to this thread. After loading new software, should I stop running into this issue after each power outage? Also, I downloaded the file mentioned in the thread, but there was no "Boot" folder/files for this switch available.

Thank You

Hi @kcrum22

Thank you for the response and the update.

This issue mainly happens due to an older version on your RUCKUS ICX-7150-C12P Switch. Upgrading the Switch to a recommended version can avoid this issue in the future.

To check the same please hep me with the command outputs.

1. First, identify the current IP address assigned to the switch ICX-7150-C12P by your local router. You can use an IP scanner tool to easily locate the switch's IP address on your network. Here is a guide on how to perform this using IP Scanner free applications:

https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/RUCKUS-Lennar-Support-Knowledge/How-to-find-the-IP-Address-of-the-RUCKUS-Devices-Switch-and-APs/ta-p/77863

2. Once you have identified the IP address of the switch, proceed to access the Command Line Interface (CLI) of the RUCKUS ICX-7150-C12P switch. Here is a guide on how to access the CLI:

https://community.ruckuswireless.com/t5/RUCKUS-Lennar-Support-Knowledge/How-to-access-the-Command-Line-Interface-CLI-of-the-RUCKUS-ICX/ta-p/74450

If you can access the Command line the prompt should look like below:

ICX7150-C12 Router> OR

ICX7150-C12 Switch>

3. After successfully accessing the CLI, please execute the following commands and provide the outputs:

enable

show version

show flash

Please share the command outputs or screenshots if you encounter any issues or errors during these steps.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or require further assistance.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience.

Best regards,

Imran Sanadi

Hello Imran.

Jumping back into this one as I have encountered this issue again. It was working fine for months, but just had a power glitch and now had the same issue. I was able to reboot/reset manually via Putty after about 5 attempts this time, but want to prevent this in the future from happening again.

I was thinking I need to update the software so started following the steps from the link you provided but the file referenced seem outdated. Can you help suggest the correct version on files I should try loading on to the switch?

The instructions say to download this: RUCKUS ICX FastIron 08.0.90k (GA) Software Release (.zip).

However, it looks like it is up to version 10. Please help to confirm.

Also, now that the switch did reboot, it is prompting me for a username and password while in PUtty. Do you know what that default it?

Thank You
