CXI Controller Layer2 Switch

[mitelsx2k]

Hi I have a customer that have disabled all 17 ports on the front of there CXI by mistake, hence i cannot logon to it via the web browser, is there any way i can enable the ports via mtce port or any other way of enabling them. Thanks

All I remember is that there's a command to delete Vlan tagging on Port 17, via mtce port.

"When programming IP Networking Configuration on a CXi 3300 Controller please be aware of the following.

Under System IP Configuration / Quality of Service, if you change the VLAN ID and priority you will not be able to connect directly to the uplink port or layer 2 ports with your PC. When you change these settings you are putting the uplink and layer 2 ports into a different VLAN and therefore need a VLAN aware NIC in your PC or connect the uplink port to a trunk port on a VLAN aware layer 2 switch.

If you have changed this by mistake then use the following procedure to recover the CXi.

1) Connect a serial cable to the RS232 port. Open hyperterminal and connect with 9600,8,N,1.

2) Type vlan_off and press return.

3) After 30 seconds you will be able to connect to the RTC address through ESM via the uplink or layer 2 ports.

4) Change the VLAN ID to 1 and Priority to 0.

5) Reboot the CXi 3300 controller.

Hi, I have reset via mtce cable to vlan_off but still cannot login via web page as all 17 ports have been disabled by mistake, any ideas...

How the heck to you disable all the ports?

I'd tell you a UDP joke but I'm afraid you won't get it. TCP jokes are the best because you always get them.

You can disable them in the web app so I imagine there is a cli command to re-enable them but I have no idea what it would be...one for Mitel support I reckon.

 

[wireman50]

just a thought, I wonder if you can re-enable them via the confguration wizerd...?

If you go into the l2 switch on the web page you can disable them,how do you enable them as i cannot login via the web page.
