Rebooting a Switch

This procedure reboots the switch and reloads the AT-S81 management
software from flash memory. You might reboot the device if you believe it
is experiencing a problem. Rebooting the device does not change any of
the device’s parameter settings.

Caution

The switch does not forward network traffic during the reboot
process. Some network traffic may be lost.

To reboot a switch, perform the following procedure:

1. From the Tools menu, select System Reboot.

The System Reboot Configuration page is shown in Figure 52.

Figure 52. System Reboot Configuration Page

2. For the Reboot Type, select Normal Reset. This is the default setting.

Note

The two other Reboot Type options, Reset to Factory Default and
Reset to Factory Default Except IP Address, are described in
“Returning the AT-S81 Management Software to the Factory Default
Values” on page 212.

3. For the Reboot Status, select Start to start the reboot.

4. Click Apply.
