Hi guys, I searched the archives about this, but couldn't find anything.
I have a Cat 2912 switch, that has 4 faulty ports. It fails post, here is a snippet: C2900xl POST: System Board Test: Passed C2900xl POST: Daughter Card Test: Passed C2900xl POST: CPU Buffer Test: Passed C2900xl POST: CPU Notify RAM Test: Passed C2900xl POST: CPU Interface Test: Passed C2900xl POST: Testing Switch Core: Passed C2900xl POST: Testing Buffer Table: Passed C2900xl POST: Data Buffer Test: Passed C2900xl POST: Configuring Switch Parameters: Passed C2900xl POST: Ethernet Controller Test: Passed C2900xl POST FAILURE: front-end post: FastEthernet0/9: C2900xl POST FAILURE: looped-back packet not received C2900xl POST FAILURE: front-end post: FastEthernet0/10: C2900xl POST FAILURE: looped-back packet not received C2900xl POST FAILURE: front-end post: FastEthernet0/11: C2900xl POST FAILURE: looped-back packet not received C2900xl POST FAILURE: front-end post: FastEthernet0/12: C2900xl POST FAILURE: looped-back packet not received C2900xl POST: MII Test: Passed cisco WS-C2912-XL (PowerPC403GA) processor (revision 0x11) with 8192K/1024K bytes of memory. Last reset from power-on Processor is running Enterprise Edition Software Cluster command switch capable Cluster member switch capable 8 FastEthernet/IEEE 802.3 interface(s) You can see it only recognises 8 ports. I searched CCO, and found a bknown bug where ESD can fry the controllers. Each controller operates 4 ports. Is there a way to get it reapired? Can you buy the controller from somewhere and replace it? Any help greatly appreciateed, Symon Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=59329&t=59329 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
