Factory Reset 6400

Post by avrilspirit »

Hello,
I would like to know if it's possible to make a factory reset for the 6400 and 6850 switch.

Yes, it is possible.

Code: Select all

Switch-> cd working
Switch-> rm boot.cfg
Switch-> cd ..
Switch-> cd network
Switch-> rm userTable*
Switch-> reload working no rollback-timeout
*Wait for the OmniSwitch to reboot*
*Login with admin/switch*
Switch-> copy working certified
Your switch is now back to factory defaults (configuration & users).

Hi,
if you like to go to factory default, than you have to delete boot.cfg + restart like Benny descripted.

Otherwise it's possible to undo/disable all configs step by step.
-> write terminal
to show all the config. Depending of the config you can with no-commands delete the config (every vlan, every ip interface ..... line by line).
That's the onlies way to edit the running config in my knowledge.

Hello ,

I just performed a reset to factory of an OS6400 with the following commands:
Switch-> cd working
Switch-> rm boot.cfg
Switch-> cd ..
Switch-> cd network
Switch-> rm userTable*
Switch-> reload working no rollback-timeout
*Wait for the OmniSwitch to reboot*
*Login with admin/switch*
Switch-> copy working certified

After that I connect to the switch through the console port and I create a new ip interface but I can not activate it.
I also noticed that when I connect my laptop to one of the ports of the switch there is not any led flashing. Can you please tell me step by step what I have to do to activate vlan1 and the ip interface that I created ?
This is my first configuration of an 6400 and I have many queries and difficulties!!!!

Thank you very much !!!!

vlan 1 is default., so all your ports are in vlan 1.

to be sure:
show vlan 1 ports
create an IP interface:
ip interface "vlan1" address 10.10.10.1/24 vlan 1

to be able to login via ssh/telnet you need to set authentication:
aaa authentication default local
(or aaa authentication ssh local for only ssh)

But if no led is flashing there is a problem.. check your cables do a show interfaces 1/1 (or whatever port you used)

Hint: read the getting started guide!
