Rebooting the Switch

The

reboot

command should only be executed during network down time and when no data

is being transmitted across the network. Also, you should ensure that all configuration infor-
mation has been saved first. Note that the

reboot

command is only available to the

admin

and

the

diag

logins.

Caution

Rebooting the switch will disconnect a Telnet connec-
tion to the User Interface and will interrupt the
network connections on the switching modules.

To reboot the switch from the command line, enter

at the prompt and press

<Enter>

The switch will now take at least a minute to start up again. (If you are connected to the User
Interface with a serial connection, the console displays start-up related information.) The login
message displays when the reboot is complete:
