Lost Ruckus switch after power outage

I spent most of the weekend reading many posts here about this issue and tried to fix things but keep coming to a dead end since I cannot seem to find the IP address for the switch.  I can see the MAC using the unleash program and App along with the IP scan tool but can never see the switch.  Where do I go from here?  Oh and Yes I tried every power reboot combination I could think of.

  Thanks in advance

Hi @BillC 

 

As you mentioned that on your ICX-7150-C12P Switch, the SYST and PWR lights are steady green, which means the lights are in a normal state.

Since the switch is in the normal state you can take Console access to the switch in order to verify, if the switch is able to transfer the power to PoE devices via 12 ports.

 

To check this, first, we have to get access to the switch, and there are Two ways to get access to the switch.

  1. I) By IP Address of the Switch OR
  2. II) By Console Access to the Switch

 

  1. By IP address: To fix this issue, we must identify the ‘current’ IP address assigned by your local router to the switch ICX-7150-C12P

I will leave you a guide on how to perform an IP scanner on your local network to identify the switch IP address very easily.

Once we identify the IP address of the switch proceed to access remotely to the device “Command Line” 

How to remotely access to 'ICX 7150-C12P' or 'access points' "Network devices":

If you can access the Command line should look like this:

2. Now please perform the following commands and share the output:

enable

Show version

Show inline power

Show inline power detail

 

3.By Console access: If access via IP address is not possible here is a guide on how to access to the Switch via console (cable access between your PC to the ICX 7150-C12P) in this case we need a USB type C to USB standard or Console cable Rj45 to USB.

Once you are logged in to the ICX-7150-C12P please follow up the same steps that are on point '2'

 

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

Thank you for your help. Got connected and did the flash to secondary so will always boot as switch.  System now seems to be working properly.
