Unable to ping virtual interfaces on Foundry Super-X 800

Hi everyone. I'd appreciate some help with this issue. I have a Foundry FastIron Super-X 800 that I need to add four VLANs to. I have added them and assigned some ports, however I am unable to ping the virtual interfaces (ve's in Foundry/Brocade speak).

  • None of the ports have had real devices plugged into them yet, however on newer Brocade or Ruckus switches this wouldn't affect pinging the ve.
  • All of the physical interfaces are down, but not disabled.
  • If I try to use one of the new ve's as the source IP to ping something else, the switch returns 'inactive source IP address'. Other ve's can ping each other without issue.
  • I have manually enabled each of the new ve's but this made no change.
  • I have not reloaded the switch as it's difficult to get a maintenance window where I can do so. I've never had to reload a switch to be able to ping a ve before but if that's what I have to do, it's what I have to do.

I'm really baffled by this. Unfortunately the switch is old and out of support so I haven't had much luck from Ruckus. I am aware also that the software is quite old but as I mentioned getting a window to do this has proven impossible so far.

Config below. The non-responsive VEs are 110, 111, 112, and 120.
