Ruckus ICX 7150 Switch is Disconnected / in Boot Mode

mwhite14 — Sun, 02 Mar 2025 16:11:11 GMT

Good Afternoon. When logging into the dashboard for my switch, I am noticing that the switch is in a state of Disconnected. Also when I attempted to ssh into the switch, the only commands that were available were exit,help,quit,history, and enable. We attempted power cycling and reseting the switch as well as the master access point numerous times. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Good Evening Pinky,

Thank you for looking into this. As far as the answers:

Was there any power outage before you started facing this issue? Yes there were power surges Feb 17 that caused the power to come off for about a second and come back on. However it does not seem like the switch ever recovered
On your switch while it's plugged into the outlet, do you see any lights on? (Amber or green) Please let us know which lights are on. (See attached photos of switch)

Thanks again!

Hello @mwhite14 ,

Thank you for sharing the response.

From the response, I understand that the Switch is on the disconnected state and it is booted up on the secondary partition which is running on Routing code (SPR)

The Switch should run on the Switching code (SPS) to avoid these issues for Lennar home users. Due to a power outage/power spike, the Switch boots up on the other partition which may be running on a ‘Routing Code’ results in causing this issue.

Please follow the below RUCKUS Lennar Knowledge base self-help article which will help you to fix the issue when the Switch is running in the Routing code.

Please follow the process as explained in the article and let me know if you have any queries in this regard.

Good Evening Pinky.

I do not see the commands that you are referring to. I was able to log into the switch using ssh and execute the enable command to get elevated privileges. However, the attached image is what I get. As a result, when I attempt to execute show version, show flash, or copy flash flash secondary, I get the error, The command is either unrecognized or incomplete. To view a list of commands that you can run from this context, type '?' or 'help'.

Thanks again.

Hello @mwhite14 ,

Greetings!

Thank you for sharing the screenshot.

From the below screenshot, it seems that the Ip address you used to login to the CLI appears to be of Unleashed AP and not of the ICX-7250 Switch.

Once you access the IP address from the IP Scan results, to confirm that the IP address is associated with the Switch, you should observe the Switch Dashboard, which should be visible upon accessing the appropriate IP address, as illustrated in the screenshot below.

I recommend cross-checking the IP addresses listed in the IP scan results under the names "Ruckus Wireless" or "Brocade Communications" to identify the correct IP address of the Switch and proceed to access the CLI accordingly.

Please let us know if you have any queries in this regard.

Thank you again for your patience and understanding.
