Hi Patel,

Can you paste the output of "sh version" and also check the config reg value?

Ankur

Make sure your configuration register is set to 0x2102.

Dear creig.eyre,

It's a Catalyst Switch and

Configuration register is 0xF

Config register is incorrect, should be 0x2102 or you are not saving the config with a "write mem" command when finished configuring.

Dear qlen.qrant,

No i have saved the configuration. and the problen coming in sworking condition not after reloading the switch.

When this happan the switch syst LED and Stat LED are blinking in green and amber color.

When I again Powered up after powereed off it will boot but with no configuration.

I have formatted flash and nvram also once. but the same problem is there.

same problem that you had. Do you recall

what the fix was for this problem ?

Thanks.
