vxWorks Boot Shoregear T1

[swehes]

Hello community,

I have a problem. I am working on installing a new T1 switch that are to replace one that are crashing on us. I logged in to the switch using a maintenance port and everything logged in nicely.

I changed a few things, wanting to remove DHCP as an option and give the unit a manual IP (because it is to take the place of the other switch) and not thinking properly, changed it to receive information from the ftp instead.

Now the unit won't complete it's boot due to the problem not finding a proper ftp. Is there a way to change the settings so without changing the bootloader as it seems to be looking good still.

Thanks for any comments posted.

From that same console port you can change it back to boot from flash

Option 3 change configuration
Boot Flash

If this doesn't help, call your rep they can assist.

Thanks for the reply. My problem was a little deeper than that. It wouldn't complete a boot for me. I figured out how to fix issue by finding this document
ShoreTel Telephone Systems

Hope this one help anyone someone else who may have problems.

No worries, its difficult to see what the issue is unless your in the SG and watchign the boot cycle. I am assuming you changed the fei to flash0

Interrupt the boot cycle (you'll see when it says press any key to stop), this will drop you into VXWorks. Run this:

setenv autoload FLASH
setenv bootfile /flash0/vxworks
setenv script /flash0/bootflsh.txt
setenv bootcmd flashboot\;bootvx
saveenv

This would be true if it is a Kilauea Switch, if it is the older Firmware then to interrupt then use C for config

Is this a new generation ShoreGear SG or the Older T1
