4.7 Rebooting the Bridge
The reboot option power cycles the Bridge, ending all sessions
and forcing Secure Client devices (and any other Fortress
Bridges) in communication with the Bridge to re-key in order to
start a new session.
1 Log on to the Bridge GUI admin account and choose
SYSTEM OPTIONS from the menu on the left.
2 On the SYSTEM OPTIONS screen under REBOOT SYSTEM , click
OK .
NOTE: Beyond the
initial blink at the
beginning of the boot
process, there are no
LED indications in a
Bridge in blackout
mode (refer to Section
3.7).
3 On the resulting system dialog, click
OK
again (or Cancel the
reboot).
The Bridge emits a short chirp and its front-panel LEDs
light briefly and then go briefly dark, as the Bridge begins
the boot process.
Stat1 LED exhibits a slow green flash
when the LEDs come back on. Then the Bridge, running
the upgraded firmware, returns to normal operation (the
Stat1 LED lights solid green).
You can reboot the Bridge from the front panel (described in
Section 3.10.2), from the Bridge CLI (described in Section
6.5.4), or from the Bridge GUI (described above).
Several configuration changes on the Bridge require a reboot
in order to take effect. Software upgrades require you to
reboot, as well. You will also need to reboot the Bridge to apply
network configuration changes, and you may want to do so as
part of a troubleshooting operation.
