M7300-24XF all port lights flashing in sequence

Hi guys,

 

We have several of these switches in a stack and all port lights are flashing on and off in sequence with even timing. I'm relatively new to this company and am not familiar with this model of switch, but I would swear this is some kind of storm. Can anyone confirm if this kind of port LED pulsing on and off in a steady rhythm is normal for that model, I think not?

 

Thanks,

 

Garry

    Hi Garryc,

     

    Welcome to the community! :)

     

    Kindly answer the questions below:

     

    a. Are there any recent changes made within the existing network setup or within the settings of the M7300-24XF switch stack?

    b. Did the M7300-24XF switch stack stopped working since all port lights are flashing on and off in sequence? 

    c. What is the current firmware version of the M7300-24XF switch stack?

    d. How is everything connected?  It would be best if you could post a diagram of your detailed network setup.

     

     

    Regards,

        Hi Dane, at this stage we are still investigating the issue. Not 100% but it looks as though we may have a loop from/to one of the other switches on our Campus. Will provide further updates once we know more.

         

        Thanks,

         

        Garry.
