Hi,

Thanks for providing the information. It is great when the community helps each other out.

How did you connect to the switch to do the xmodem commands?

Hi rcoop133,

You can connect to the serial port of the switch through the cmc with the connect switch command.

Thanks Josh. As the original poster stated, when the R1-2210 doesn't boot properly the serial connection from the CMC just hangs.

I purchased a cable to connect to the serial port: WY835

I have a different error:

%HAL_hw_lion-F-SetInfModeAndSpeedFailed: Failed to configure ifIndex 5 speed 2 interface mode 3 status 1

Any idea on how to fix this issue? Flashing the firmware via xmodem does not help.

The solution was to pull the switch, remove the cover, and then remove the small battery (CR2032) and then replace it.

Great that you got it resolved.
