McDATA Sphereon 4300
Hi,
Bought a Sphereon 4300 12 port fabric switch with only (4) ports activated (unaware); Question, does anyone have a license key to enable the other (8) ports? Thanks, |

Hi, Bought a Sphereon 4300 12 port fabric switch with only (4) ports activated (unaware); Question, does anyone have a license key to enable the other (8) ports? Thanks, Hi, found 2 procedures - check - maybe will help you: 1. Login as root with a password of fibranne - use the configdefault command to reset the passwords to factory defaults. the configdefault command, does not effect existing zoning, IP, licensing, switch naming conventions, but does return the domain ID to 1 and the Corepid parameter to 0, if previously set to one. if this will not work - do like following To recover the Root password: 1. Connect to the serial port interface of the switch (DS32B2)/Standby CP(ED12000B) 2. Reboot the switch (DS32B2)/Standby CP (SW12000) and press ESC within four seconds after the message "Press escape within 4 seconds..." displays. "Enter Boot PROM interface:" 3. Enter the Boot PROM password. (If no password, hit enter). 4. Enter "3" at the prompt to enter the command shell. 5. At the "" prompt enter the printenv command and save the output. 6. Enter the boot command followed by the first memory address after the string OSLoader= obtained from the printenv output and –s (exact syntax) Example: boot memory address -s The system is coming up, please wait... Checking system RAM - press any key to stop test Checking memory address: 01300000 System RAM check terminated by keyboard System RAM check complete Press escape within 4 seconds to enter boot interface. 1) Start system. 2) Recover password. 3) Enter command shell. Option? 3 Password: printenv AutoLoad=yes ENET_MAC=006069602BD6 InitTest=MEM() LoadIdentifiers=IDE w/ XFS;IDE w/ XFS & NFS Root OSLoader=MEM()0xF0000000;MEM()0xF0800000 OSRootPartition=hda1;hda2 SkipWatchdog=yes boot MEM()0xF0000000 -s 7. Enter the following string at the prompt: mount -o remount,rw,noatime / 8. Enter the following string at the prompt: mount /dev/hda2 /mnt 9. Enter the passwddefault command with the full path, as follows: /sbin/passwddefault (This resets the User, Admin, Factory, and Root passwords to the default values.) 10. Enter the reboot –f command if the switch is a DS32B2. reboot -f (Traffic flow resumes when the switch finishes rebooting.) 11. Log into the DS32B2 switch by serial or telnet as Root and set new passwords for all accounts. This one should help - let me know. Default password for admin after passwddefault will be word "password" Hope that will help, Regards, Blazej |
