Rebooting a Switch

Resetting the switch ends your web browser management session. To
continue managing the switch, you must log in again.

Note

All unsaved changes are discarded when you reset a switch. To
save your changes to the startup configuration file, click SAVE.

To reboot a switch, perform the following procedure:

1. Hover the cursor over the System Tab.

2. From the System tab drop-down menu, select Dashboard.

The Dashboard Page is displayed. See Figure 3 on page 28.

3. Select Reboot at the bottom of the page.

A confirmation prompt is displayed indicating that the connection to the
web is lost during a reboot.

4. Click OK to reset the switch or Cancel to cancel the procedure.

Note

The switch does not forward packets while it initializes the
management software and loads its active configuration file. This
process takes between 20 seconds to 2 minutes to complete,
depending on the number and types of commands in the
configuration file.
