[AusNOG] Dell PowerConnect 5448

[Brett Franklin]

I worked on one of these switches lately, used a standard cisco console cable at 9600 baud.

Having said that the baud rate can be changed so also try higher ones, that's hopefully why you aren't getting anything.

Gday Guys

Just an update.

Would anybody be in the area of ME1, with a nullmodem serial cable I could borrow by any chance?

Cheers

Hi Guys

I’ve just installed a refurb Dell PowerConnect 5448 into Equinix ME1. However I am having a seriously bad time getting console into the device to reset the config.

I have tried plugging a serial cable in directly from the switch into a servers Com1 port, also tried a USB to serial cable on my laptop.

Wondering if anyone else might have any tricks up their sleeves?  Or if they know any other way I can factory reset this switch without console?

Cheers
DW
