Step 3: 

Stop Versa services

 

 
[admin@versa-flexvnf: ~] $ vsh stop
 

 

Step 4: 

Check eth1 & eth2 MACs and current NVM version

Step 16:

Once the eeprom re-initialization is done, power cycle the system once more.

 

Step 17:

After power cycling, go to VOS cli and verify all interfaces are detected and working properly as expected.
