Cisco Hi,
Unfortunately, I tried to reset my device through the configuration CLI tab in IOS-WebUI and I ruined it.
Now, I see no IP (no 10.0.0.1 or the IP the device got from DHCP).
Also, I can't browse to it's IOS WebUI.
Please, help me to recover the device.
Guide me to the simplest way to recover it (anyway, I'm junior).
I have a RJ45-USB console cable.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.

First change the Boot variable to boot correctly :
you need to change 2 config here
1 is boot variable :
config t
no boot system
boot system flash:/c2960l-universalk9-mz.152-6.E2b/c2960l-universalk9-mz.152-6.E2b.bin
end
wr
2nd config reg
config t
confreg 0x2102
end
wr
and reload the device.
Once the device reloaded - you can setup the switch as normal, if you like GUI, then you need to configure your PC with IP 10.0.0.2 gateway 10.0.0.1 (ping 10.0.0.1 - if that work, you can use GUI to configure) - make sure you setup username and passswor.

Thanks. But I already reviewed this article and as I already mentioned I lost 10.0.0.1 address

Can you use the console cable and connect to the switch and post the output?

Are you booting the switch Manually?

Yes.
I'm sorry.
I understand the following request: "...and post complete bootlogs" - as to perform it manually

since I have no experience with that:
Before I start performing your instructions:
1) to perform the instruction, in what state I should load the switch now?
- press on mode button then connect with putty? (the following line is displayed: "switch#")
OR
- start as usual, just turn on the switch and connect via putty? (the following line is displayed: "switch>")
2) after performing your instructions:
In order to connect to the switch that configured with IP: 10.0.0.1 via web browser -
Should I configure the PC IP to 10.0.0.X?

To perform the task you need to get in to enable mode
> enable
you get hash prompt. ( you can copy and paste my commands)
#
you can reload the device, configure your PC with 10.0.0.X (2-254) with the gateway 10.0.0.1 then you use browser to configure.

confreg 0x2102 and config-register 0x2102 commands show "Invalid input detected at '^' marker"
