Change current IP address for FOS Fabric OS: v6.1.1

[Anonymous]

Good afternoon Antonio
 I have a Brocade Fabric OS: V6.1.1, which only allows access via serial port.

For example 

ping  192.168.30.70 does not respond to ping

The following tests have already been made, but without successfull

Exchange Ip /

Gate speed change

cable cross over

reboot Switch

Power on / off

There is an alternative to the problem?

Kernel:     2.6.14.2

Alessandro,

was the switch in the past reachable trough the managemend interface ?

try/check with the command "ipfilter" if any Rules is set, is most probable a Rule was set to the port I.E. instead IPv4 to IPv6

for details and operands refer teh Command Reference Manual

Hi Antonio,

There is no policy to ipv4.

Which directory is the network configuration files in Fabos with User root.
