Do you know what version of code is the MDS 9124 running?

[Lotfi BOUCHERIT]

hello,

i think that it's the default version, (3.1 ?)

i don't think that the previous administrator might upgrade or change it..

looking forward for your help

thanks in advance

Hi,

Are you able to access the 9124 by Device Manager, web browser, telnet, or ssh when your laptop is directly connected to the mgmt0 interface and your laptop configured on the same subnet as the mgmt0 interface?

What console settings, console cable, terminal emulator application are you using and does it work with another MDS9000?

Regards,

David

hello,

actually we just have one fc switch

for the information used to connect to the console:

>terminal : putty

>baud rate : 9600

>parity :  none

>stopbits : 1 bit

i mean the defaults, even the ssh, it does not give at least that warning about security certificate
