Hi hi quick question on whether I've just a defective unit or I'm missing something in the setup guide. I'm trying to setup the 6450-48P.
Following Fohdeesha's guide, I have the master zip downloaded and I had PuTTy set up to connect to the switch. I have a USB to serial adapter cable hooked up to the serial port, and a standard Cat 6 ethernet cable to the existing router. After booting several times with the PuTTy settings in the guide (I turned off Flow control), the output in the image showed up. After waiting several minutes, It briefly flashed some messages about loading PoE and restarted. However, since then I haven't been able to get any serial output, and can't set the values to the factory default. I've tried using the reset button on the front of the switch but to no avail. Mashing or holding the B button doesn't seem to be able to stop the bootloader, though with no output I have no clue whether it's even loading anything.
Essentially I'm just wondering if it's borked. It starts up and has a period of high fan load before slowing down, so the behaviour seems to be the same as before. The cable I'm using is a FTDI cable and I've installed their drivers for it.
Many thanks in advance.
