SSH unreachable and CONSOLE password lost on a PowerConnect M6348

Hey everyone,

I'm in serious trouble...

The switch doesn't respond to ping (even after hard reboot), and I have lost the console password...

I am looking for a way to get out of this mess, and be able to log into the switch CLI.

I have tried to connect through the M1000e CMC, but it also prompted me, a need for password.

Could you guys help me on this ? What are my options ? Can I somehow reset the switch ?

Thank you for your help,

Regards

Jérémy

Hi,

You should be able to bring up the boot menu through console by pressing 2 during POST. There is an option to restore to factory defaults.
