ICX 7150 stuck in boot mode and non responsive

Drewshreeve1 — Fri, 20 Jan 2023 00:57:22 GMT

Hello,

My ICX 7150 switch that came with my Lennar Home is stuck in boot mode after a power outage. I have an iMac computer and have followed the instructions for a reinstalling the drivers and software. When connected to the computer via USB to C cord and ethernet cable it does not even detect my ruckus switch. My unit is completely bricked and unresponsive. Please advise for further steps to resolve issue. Thanks.

Hi @Drewshreeve1

Make sure the cable is actually connected to the ICX-7150-C12P ( Switch ) In one of the 12 ports in the middle

Make sure the cable is in good condition so that both ends and connectors look good.

Note : you will see a light come on when a device is connected via Ethernet on 1 of the 12 ports available.

Here I will leave a short guide how to connect the devices properly :

Please check SYST and power the lights' status of the ICX7150 Switch, describe those lights for us first.

Also let me add more detail to understand the LED lights of your Access points.

To solve the issue, you need to get access via console, using two connections one is for console access using the USB to type C cable (the USB will be connected on your computer and the type C on your ICX7150 Switch) now the second connection will be an Ethernet cable from your computer to the out-of-band port on your ICX 7150 Switch) don't worry the next guide explains the port locations and there are pictures about it, however I will advise performing a hard factory reset first, let me add the steps.

1:Factory reset:

Remove power from the switch.
Press and hold the Reset button while applying power to the switch.
After all the system LEDs flash amber, release the Reset button.

When all the system LEDs blink green, all the configuration data are erased and the switch is returned to its factory configuration. When all the system LEDs are solid green, the erase process is complete and the system reloads. Once reloaded and the SYST LED is steady green, the factory reset is complete.

2:If the Switch is not responding to the factory reset, you need to perform the software recovery process,

Please read the guide carefully before start the steps.

I uploaded pictures of the connections. When I connect the Ethernet to one of the 12 ports I don’t get a green light. It does turn green if I hook it up to the port to the left (picture provided). The switch does not show in the system usb settings or terminal app on the computer.

Hi @Drewshreeve1

Basically if the switch has one green and one yellow light, it means that the switch is stuck in boot mode.

1-Please try to disconnect from the Power outlet the ICX- 7150 and reconnect it.

2-Please try to press the reset button using a paper click or a small stick

Remove power from the switch.
Press and hold the Reset button while applying power to the switch.
After all the system LEDs flash amber, release the Reset button.

If this step doesn't work, we need to perform a software recovery.

Here is the quick guide to perform software recovery.

Note: after fixing the issue of the Switch been stuck in boot mode, please perform an upgrade to the code 08095g UFI and upgrade both partitions with the switching code file named SPS08095gufi.bin, so perform the software recovery using the code 08090k with the upgrade image file named SPS08090k.bin, then when the switch is back to normal upgrade to the file SPS08095gufi.bin for both partitions primary and secondary.

I have tried your instructions and my computer doesn’t even detect the Switch. I have uploaded pics to this thread showing the hookup to my iMac and the ruckus switch. I have a pretty good knowledge of computers and this is pretty frustrating.

I have correctly connected the switch to my computer and it is non responsive and the computer does not detect it. I have provided pictures on this thread to show my connection. I unfortunately can not complete a software recovery because the switch is completely non responsive. Please advise for further steps to resolve issue. Thank you.

Hi @Drewshreeve1

The first step is to try the factory reset, then the Software recovery and finally perform the upgradation to the code 08095g UFI.

Please share the screenshot if the error while you are performing the software recovery process, so we can assist you.

I have tried the factory reset many times and the lights flash amber over and over. After attempting the reset I have tried to do the software recovery, per your copy/pasted instructions. My computer does not even detect that the switch is even connected. I posted a screen shot earlier in this thread of my usb connections on my iMac within the computer settings….and the ICX 7150 switch does not appear.

My device is still under warranty. I am the original owner and purchased it with my new home. I have gone above and beyond to attempt to resolve and fix the switch. Can I please be provided with a new replacement? Thank you.

Hi @Drewshreeve1

We cannot replace the chassis until you confirm that the hardware is damaged.
We have tried to create the guides as non-technical as possible, so that they are not difficult to follow; however, if you continue to have difficulty following the steps,
I would recommend that you seek outside help or a technician.

Best regards,
