Hi Guys,
I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction as I am rather stumped!
I recently purchased (ebay) a 4036 switch and was trying to connect earlier via CLI so I can configure the device for testing. Upon boot I was unable to see any messages/text with the putty setting provided in the manual.
At first I was not using the correct serial cable but after purchasing a DB9 null modem cable I was still unable to connect to the switch.
I read in the manual that the switch uses DHCP on the eth management port as the default setting however i can't see any request made for a DHCP address via my router so I doubt it is requesting one.
The switch has been reset multiple times and appears to boot and self test as all the ports flash and after a little while the fans spin down to 50%
Any recommendations would be appreciated greatly as i don't know what more to try.
Thanks in advance.
