It's a hardware error and its failing post , time to RMA the box if you have a contract. If you have tried rebooting numerous times then get it replaced.

I'm with Glen. The 2950 can now be used as a door jam until you contact Cisco and get the appliance replaced.

Are you getting any error messages AFTER the %Error: initializing?

Is there something such as:

POST set PHY loopback failed.strata_cmic_read_miim ERROR:

timeout (addr=0x00 id=0x0D)

If you let the switch on longer, does it have any other error messages or it reboots right after the initializing?

POST set PHY loopback failed.strata_cmic_read_miim ERROR:

timeout (addr=0x00 id=0x0D)

i have the above messages displayed,but didnt really notice it rebooting.i awiat ur quick response on next step.thanks

Hi Lavramov,

POST set PHY loopback failed.strata_cmic_read_miim ERROR:
