POE has failed

I confirmed no power to APs on any ports after extended shutdown and factory reboots. I also went and tried to change the coding but that still didn’t work. The status is amber and the power light sits in green. After resetting to factory default settings the lights simply just flashes yellow. 

After that I followed other instructions through another community member engineer response and I have had no luck. 

This is the third time that this has occurred. The last time this happens about 6 months ago they were going to replace it, but the engineer person at the time was able to tap into my laptop and reconfigure the coding. He struggled but kept trying and things went back to normal. The crazy part is, this time I did not have a power outage.

What are my next steps?

Hi @Bmickle 

Basically,  switch went to a state that we called (boot-mode) that is not able to boot up properly. 

That does not mean is broken or need to be replace 'in some cases'

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

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

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

If that does not make any difference, we need to perform a software recovery since it can be that the image flash is corrupted so in basic words the unit is not able to boot up properly and need re-install the image to boot up properly.

3-We need to access (physical) using one of the cables to the ICX-7150C12P mentioned on the below guide: 

How to console in the ICX-7150-12cp

Once we are there, we can try to boot up the unit using the following commands: 

Boot_primary or Boot_secondary 

If that step does not work Software recovery needs to be applied

Nothing worked. These directions are not simple. I don’t know if I am doing things right or not. I worked on it for hours and nothing worked. 

What am I suppose to do now? My switch still isn’t cutting on and rebooting. 

Hi @Bmickle

 

I understand that the steps may be somewhat new, however, 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, please share, so we can further assist you, or I would recommend that you seek outside help or a technician.

 

Best regards,
