Thank you for your reply. Yes I did see that before posting but this is a red light. Dark red just like the color on my 7024's. I also should have been more clear that i can't connect to it vie the browser or CLI
Note:
I can't remember the last time i used a serial cable to connect to a device (it was 2015) so i had to scramble to find one and find a computer that had a com port (need to get a rj45-serial cable)so i won't rule out one of these wasn't working correctly. So i will continue to try and connect to it via the COM port using putty.
Also, In the upper end switches that have a blinking RED it says non-critical system error. But again as of now i can't connect to it so i have no clue. Is there another way? Like some other switches you could open them up and use a jumper to flash it. Or they would normally just have a pin hole and you could reset it this way. But the mode reset method doesn't seem to do anything. doesn't even blink the lights. Anything like that?
