reboot

This command causes a reboot of the system.

CAUTION:

A reboot erases any configuration changes that have not been saved. If necessary,
enter a

save

command before the reboot command.

Certain configuration settings require a reboot before the setting becomes effective,
including:

A change from IP routing to bridging or the reverse.

The addition of IKE filters

IPX changes

Certain changes to Stateful Firewall rules

Other configuration changes become effective following either a reboot or a restart of
the Ethernet or remote interface. These changes include:

System settings

Ethernet IP address

TCP/IP routing

Remote router default bridging destination

TCP/IP route addresses

SAPs and bridging

Adding a new remote entry to the remote database.

A reboot also ensures that all file system updates are completed. There is a time lag
between the entry of a save command and the safe storage of the data in FLASH
memory. If the power goes off before the data is stored in memory, the data can be
lost. Always reboot before powering off the router. Or, use the

sync

command to

commit file changes to memory.
