Serviceport and SSH wont accept config after firmware update to 7-0-1-24
Good afternoon, After purchasing several M4500-48XF8C devices, we have been impacted by the following bugs. We have updated to firmware version 7.0.1.24. The following problems are still occu...
Good morning, we are having this same issue after upgrading. You can access your device if you use port 1223 for Telnet or 1234 for ssh. Our main issue is we go through our agency's firewall that does not permit 1223 or 1234 so we have resorted to keep the firmware at 7.0.1.20 until the fix comes out. FYI, if you decide to downgrade to 7.0.1.20 SSH will not revert to port 22...for some reason
Good afternoon,
For clarification, we upgraded from 7.0.1.20 to 7.0.1.24 and experienced the same behavior with both. The bugs existed before and after the upgrade in our case.
Thank you
We experienced the same thing with an out of the box switch that was at 7.0.0.7. We upgraded it to 7.0.1.6 (unsigned) and still no SSH. We then did some tests and sequentially upgraded it to 7.0.1.24. Each version had the same issue of not allowing SSH to utilize port 22. Our workaround is I changed the IP SSH port to 23 as 1234 is not allowed over our Firewalls but Telnet is. Hopefully the new version will fix these two bugs. FYI I never experienced the service port resetting to default after a power cycle...until I responded to your post, than boom...our build rebooted and lost its IP.
