Thank you .Short and sweet explanation.Those who are watching please make sure to watch till end to change the values CONFIG=O to save the config to avoid booting as default in next reboot.
You don't have to go to boot loader the 2nd time. You can do "no system ignore startupconfig switch all" in global configuration mode to tell the switch to NOT to ignore the startup config
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE GUIDANCE! IT HELPED ME A LOT! I WAS STRUGGLING WITH CASE SENSITIVENESS IN ALL OTHER VIDEOS BUT AFTER WATCHING YOUR VIDEO I CAME TO KNOW THAT ROMMON MODE IS CASE SENSITIVE & NOW ME ISSUE IS RESOLVED! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! (My comment is case sensitive ;-P)
I see the you entered "boot flash:packages.conf" command and the switch gave you an error message "failed to boot from flash:packages.conf (Not Found) and then you entered the command again "boot flash:packages.conf" and the camera cut out. I don't believe it actually worked using that specific process speaking from experience.
The video is very good, But it didn't work for me, but I found this that is very similar: I recently inherited as pallet of Cat 9200Ls from a customer who shutdown one of their offices. Many of them had existing configuration and were part of a stack previously. As far as I can tell the ROMMON mode on these switches doesn’t give you the ability to delete the existing configuration files. Here is how you have to work around that. First boot the switch. Once ########### starts scrolling across the terminal press the button on the front of the switch. This will break the boot into ROMMON mode. Once in ROMMON mode you need to paste in three commands: switch: SWITCH_IGNORE_STARTUP_CFG=1 switch: unset STACK_1_1 switch: boot This should be all that is needed to ignore the existing configuration and boot into a blank configuration. Once booted into a blank configuration: enable write erase switch X renumber 1 conf t no system ignore startupconfig switch all do write memory do reload Renumbering the switch and reloading will both present prompts. After the switch as rebooted it should be in a usable factory default state. HOPE TO HELP WHO DOESNT UNDERSTAND MUCH LIKE ME!
I have a webui question My vendor configured my switch. I can access it through putty and use CLI. I'm not very educated in CLI and would rather prefer webui. When I try to access webui by IP through HTTP, I get to the Cisco credential screen but can't log in. My username and password for CLI doesn't work for webui. Do I need to enable webui or a username/password in CLI before I can access webui?
Cisco documentation on this is terrible. I must have rebooted my C9200 a million times before finding your video and the note about exactly when to press the Mode button!
So if the intruder can reach the switch physicall in our company he can aceess the switch without knowing the password of it and can change the all confg of it
I really hope your not actually in the networking field. Hot tip, an intruder can actually take money out of a bank safe if he can access it. If you don't have physical security, you're boned.
Will this allow me to change the secret password used to enter enable mode on a catalyst 2960 as well? I have found multiple guides to generate a new factory default config, but none of them fix my issue which is that I forgot my secret enable password.
Hi Team, Can you please confirm me that the Pen drive or extra SSD storage which is coming along with 9300 cisco switch that can be used for other devices like server and laptops. waiting for response 😇

This is so helpful... Cisco is making our life soooo complicated, there's never good enough documentation in the internet.
Thanks!

You saved my bacon!! Thanks a million for this video!!
This video saved my job, thanks man
We love to hear that!
great step by step guidance. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you to be so helpful. Wish to you an amazing day!
Very helpful, I owe you one.
Thanks a million, Great info 👍🏼
Simple and best video mate
Right at the 6 minute mark what exactly did you do? It was quick and I couldn't see the complete command? Help!
If I have a stack with 5 switches when is the time to power on the slaves again?
I see the you entered "boot flash:packages.conf" command and the switch gave you an error message "failed to boot from flash:packages.conf (Not Found) and then you entered the command again "boot flash:packages.conf" and the camera cut out. I don't believe it actually worked using that specific process speaking from experience.

First boot the switch. Once ########### starts scrolling across the terminal press the button on the front of the switch. This will break the boot into ROMMON mode.
Once in ROMMON mode you need to paste in three commands:

switch: boot
This should be all that is needed to ignore the existing configuration and boot into a blank configuration. Once booted into a blank configuration:
enable
write erase
switch X renumber 1
conf t
no system ignore startupconfig switch all
do write memory
do reload
Renumbering the switch and reloading will both present prompts.
After the switch as rebooted it should be in a usable factory default state.

I have a webui question
My vendor configured my switch. I can access it through putty and use CLI. I'm not very educated in CLI and would rather prefer webui. When I try to access webui by IP through HTTP, I get to the Cisco credential screen but can't log in. My username and password for CLI doesn't work for webui. Do I need to enable webui or a username/password in CLI before I can access webui?
It doesn't work for me. After entering 'boot flash:packages.conf', it asks me for the enable password again.
Thanks for the recap :)
Question: How about for switches in stack, what is the initial process? Should i on/off all ? or keep members turn off and do off/on Master only?
Thanks a lot. It was very helpful for me😀
Thank you very much brother this is realy helpfull video
Great video, thanks!
Cisco documentation on this is terrible. I must have rebooted my C9200 a million times before finding your video and the note about exactly when to press the Mode button!
No its not, you're google-fu is terrible.
A million hits www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=cisco+9200+password+reset
I have question this switch does supported subinterface for routing
???
Thanks you.
super...thank you
Superb bro

Wh else is getting this sys error #############
TAM PCR8 Update Failed with rc=250
thank you sir
Gracis fue de gran ayuda
Would like to see how to copy config to new switch 9200l series
do a show run and copy from buffer in Putty/SecureCRT.
Paste that into other switch.
Will this allow me to change the secret password used to enter enable mode on a catalyst 2960 as well? I have found multiple guides to generate a new factory default config, but none of them fix my issue which is that I forgot my secret enable password.
Do you not know how to google for password reset for a cisco catalyst?
Hi Team, Can you please confirm me that the Pen drive or extra SSD storage which is coming along with 9300 cisco switch that can be used for other devices like server and laptops.
waiting for response
😇
I think that timed out...
thanks !!!
I did the same but when it boot tehre it is not asking username and password it directly asking enable password
Me too, after enter "boot flash:packages.conf", it asking me the enable password again.
The Cisco USB to USB cable sucks,

how can i reset a Raisecom iscom 2900?
BIG BOOT
ISCOM2924GF-4C-AC/D_Bootstrap_5.2.1_20160622(10:24:52)
? - List all available commands
h - List all available commands
V - Show bootstrap version
b - Boot an executable image
T - Download system program
u - XMODEM download system boot image
S - select boot system sofware
R - Reboot
my only gripe with the video, is the volume of your voice is far to low to listen to in a data center lol
dont listen him! Just write "boot"
yup
