Thanks for the reply and I did look at those instructions, but a far as I can tell the commands can only be executed via the console port. If I try to SSH it is asking to login.

If nothing works you might just need to connect via the console port, worst case scenario you need to buy a LONG Ethernet cable they come in handy though I have a bad habit of cutting out smaller ones when I’m need until they’re no longer long enough!

Yeap just ordered a console cable, seems as that is going to be the way I can get back into the switch. Thanks for your suggestions..

Update: Console cable resolved the issue.

Having some trouble with DHCP relay (read: ip helper) on an ICX7150-24 L3 switch running 8.0.95h routing firmware. The DHCP server is running on a virtual Mikrotik, on an esxi server hung off one of the switchports. When I trunk the VLANs through to the mikrotik, and set up individual DHCP servers on each VLAN, no problem-- the MT L3 VLAN interface sees the broadcast, responds, everybody's happy. When I configure IP relay on the switch VEs, nothing happens-- the MT's loopback interface (192.168.101.1) with the dhcp server doesn't see packets, and I don't seem to see anything in the switch logs, even with a few debug flags (e.g. dhcp_relay) enabled. I confirmed that I can ping the MT loopback from the switch, and specifically from the VE source IP.

Here's a sample config on the VE port:
Code: 
#sh run int ve7
interface ve 7
port-name guest VE
ip address 192.168.7.254 255.255.255.0
ip bootp-gateway 192.168.7.254
ip directed-broadcast
ip helper-address 1 192.168.101.1
ipv6 enable
ipv6 nd router-preference high
ipv6 nd ra-dns-server 2620:fe::11
ipv6 nd ra-dns-server 2620:fe::fe:11
!
and from the top-level config:
Code: 
#sh run | incl dhcp
ip dhcp snooping vlan 7 9
ip dhcp-client disable
ip dhcp-server relay-agent-echo enable
dhcp snooping trust
dhcp snooping trust
dhcp snooping trust

#sh run | incl gate
ip bootp-gateway 192.168.7.254
ip bootp-gateway 192.168.9.254


#sh debug                                                                 
Debug message destination:  Console                                                                 
Debug message destination:  SSH session 1                                                           
Generic IP:                                                                                         
          DHCP SNOOPING:  debugging is on                                                           
          DHCP RELAY:  debugging is on                                                              
UDP:                                                                                                
          UDP:  debugging is on
I've reloaded the switch just to be sure.

Three questions for the Brain Trust:

1. What if any other commands might I want to run for debugging / diagnostic purposes?
2. Am I wrong in expecting the MT loopback (101.1) to see IPv4 UDP port 67 packets 'stamped' from 192.168.7.254?
3. Anybody who's gotten ip helper/dhcp relay working, got any ideas to try or config to share?


Actually I'll add a fourth, unrelated-but-tangential question to save thread clarity:

4. I'd like to be able to push traffic going 'up the stick' between the switch and the virtualized router 'out of' one ethernet port and 'back into' another, so I can jumper in (and then back around) a physical bump-in-the-wire device I'd like to play with, without changing any other configs. It seems (per the 8.0.95 L3 manual) that 7150s don't do VRFs. Any ideas on how to do this gracefully with my 7150?

ETA the MT DHCP server config:
Code: 
      name="guest1" interface=loopback relay=192.168.7.254 lease-time=2h address-pool=xx7x
      bootp-support=dynamic bootp-lease-time=lease-time server-address=192.168.101.1
      authoritative=yes use-radius=no conflict-detection=no lease-script=""
      allow-dual-stack-queue=no
The MT is running latest, 7.7 I believe.

Greetings !
Recently I've acquired ICX6610-48p and I just wanted to use it as a switch (I like those SFP+ ports) . I just gave it IP address within main subnet and that's it. Most of my equipment is Mikrotik (main router, switches, APs).
I have two virtual WLANs on all APs and everything is working like it should when Brocade is not in equation (clients are getting IP addresses, can access internet, speed limitation, etc.).
When I connect some APs (or switches with connected APs) to Brocade, wifi clients on virtual WLANs are not getting IP addresses.
Main subnet is working without issues, both wifi clients and computers connected to LAN ports.

My question is (since this is my first contact with industry-grade switch):
- Do I need to config VLANs also on Brocade, in order that virtual WLAN clients could get IP addresses and access internet without problems ?

It's maybe dumb for most of you but, as I said, this is my first with these kind of switches and I'm clueless.

Thanks !

Further edited to add, apparently I don't understand debug destinations. After getting a firehose to the face and a little no debug udp, I got some useful logs:

Code:

...which suggests that it's seeing the DHCP DISCOVER, stamping it correctly, setting the proper unicast destination... and then trying to send it out a nonexistent interface? Because the DHCP server is not on a directly-connected interface (have to route packet to get there)? Am I reading that right? Because it makes no sense to me that it wouldn't just... route that unicast traffic like all the rest of it...

TLDR: Can split-tunneled VPN traffic not be allowed?

I'm running a ICX6450-24. I followed the directions at Fohdeesha Docs to get everything setup and it has been working fine. Once I connect my computer to our university's Cisco AnyConnect VPN — split-tunneling is allowed — I lose the ability to connect to any local resources (e.g., 10.0.1.0/24). I've confirmed that this IP range is listed in the Cisco Route Details Non-Secured Routes.

Is there anything on the ICX6450-24 that could be interfering with the traffic? I didn't have this issue with my previous switch (Dell PowerConnect 2816). I don't have it hooked up that I can re-test at the moment, which is why I'm reaching out here.

I've posted my config in case I mis-configured something. If you can offer any insight that would be great, thank you!

Is there anything on the ICX6450-24 that could be interfering with the traffic? I didn't have this issue with my previous switch (Dell PowerConnect 2816). I don't have it hooked up that I can re-test at the moment, which is why I'm reaching out here.

It seems very unlikely given that your switch is in a very basic configuration which doesn't include any L3 routing configuration.

If anyone wants a pinout for the DC cable to power 64XX switches with an ICX6400-EPS1500

Code: 
WST Coonnectors P20-I42002 (ATX V1, MiniFit Jr 1727080020 etc.)

Pins are straight through, connection 1 on one end goes to connection 1 on the other end.

Cable including connectors is 1M long.

Viewed from the switch or psu side. Retaining clip at top.

______________===______________
|11|12|13|14|15|16|17|18|19|20|
|01|02|03|04|05|06|07|08|09|10|

1-5,11-15 : 18AWG 300V insulated wire.
______________===______________
|11|12|13|14|15|  |  |  |  |  |
|01|02|03|04|05|  |  |  |  |  |

7-10,17-19 : 7 Conductor Unshielded Cable, 18AWG 300V insulated wire. Like Belden 8467MN. These may be the 54v PoE wires.

Thank you! I rebooted my iMac last night and connected to VPN and things seemed to work fine. Tried again this morning and it's back to not working. Some very brief searching indicated that maybe macOS Ventura (I'm on 13.2) is having issues with VPN split-tunneling. I'm going to reach out to the group that handles our VPN to see if they can help.

Does the ICX have a route to 192.168.101.1? What is in the IPv4 routing table on the ICX?

Yes, and it pings fine.

Code: 
ping 192.168.101.1

Just tried a 100G QSFP28 to 4X 25G SFP28 Breakout DAC in one of the 100g ports on the 7650 and it does not appear to be supported as I'm getting the following from show media: Port 1/3/2: Type : 40GBASE-Passive Copper 1m (QSFP+) (Not Supported)

The cable is juniper coded any idea if this would have anything to do with it? Doesn't seem like there is anything documented around breaking out the 100g port on the 7650.

hmmm. I just picked one up off the bay (need a new house switch since we are moving). I did some brief reserarch and did not see anything about 4x breakout on the 100's I thought they could only run 100 or 40. The 40 ports I thought were also not breakout. I also read that if you use the rear ports for uplink instead of stacking then it disables the front modular bay. Actually it literally says "disables configuration" of the modular bay ports. Not sure if that means they will or won't work. Hoping to get mine on the bench this coming weekend to play with it.

Honestly though I'm more interested in the 24 ports of multi-gig on mine. Probably still use my icx6610's for sfp+ ports in the rack.

do any of these units support 2.5 or 5gbs? or just 1gbs/10gbs? (and some 40gbs on the back) [specifically the Brocade ICX6610]

I think I saw one of the 7150 or 7450 24 port models did some 2.5g, but NbaseT is a bit of a bastardised standard built to save a few bucks over 10GbaseT when making consumer gear, so a lot of enterprise level gear just doeouch it, taking a position of “if it’s worth going over 1G, why would we not do 10?”

There is a new line coming out literally right now, the 8200 line, which the 12-port one has all their downlink ports as 2.5s to support running wifi 6 APs, but the very little I’ve been able to find on pricing suggests a cool 2k US for them when they get to sale

I remember reading a thread where someone was asking how to get a 2.5g SFP module to work in a 6610 and the Ruccus support rep just told them to use 10g modules, and they didn’t plan to write support into the ICX software base because there was no reason in the target market to do 2.5 anyway.

Old thread, definitely before wifi 6, so things may have changed since then. Probably no new firmware for something like the 6610 to run it properly, but @fohdeesha would know much better than I on that front

I finally found a document that shows what cables they support and yeah its a no go on breaking out those ports for the time being at least. It appears that they have been adding support for additional cables in the later software releases. PDF with details below:
https://www.commscope.com/globalassets/digizuite/61722-ds-ethernet-optics-family.pdf

I didn't actually buy the switch specifically for breaking out the 100g ports but I figured if I could run 2x25g to each of my 3 esxi servers that would save me some of the multi gig ports in the front. I've got the switch racked up and its really amazing I have 5 Cisco 4800 series AP's that do 5g multi gig and a bunch of 10g workstations. I still need to setup a stack to the 7150 in my attic. I'll keep my fingers crossed that they add breakout support in the future!

Just wanted to add my 2 cents on how much power ICX6450-24P (PoE models) draw when idle and with nothing but power connected.

I tested three ICX6450-24P (using a Shelly Plus 1PM), and all three consistently reported the same values:

25 W power draw during boot (when the two fans run at full speed)
22 W power draw after boot (when the two fans drop to low speed)
35 W power draw after a few seconds when the PoE power supply is initialized

So it seems the PoE power supply adds ~13 W on top of the idle power without PoE.
