Inadvertently reformatted N2048P
I was trying to reset an N2048P to factory defaults and inadvertently selected the option to reformat the filesystem instead.
Now the switch boots only to a u-boot menu. I tried to reload the firmware via TFTP, but I get an Error: Ethernet external port not connected.
How can I recover this switch?

follow the follow steeps
use putty and extraputty.
and at the steep 5 use xmoden to transfer the firmware to the switch.
at the steep 9. e. upload again the firmware to it using ymoden. and thats it
