Reboot System

The following menu is used to restart the Switch.

Figure 11- 31. Reboot System window

Clicking the Yes click-box will instruct the Switch to save the current configuration to non-volatile RAM
before restarting the Switch.
Clicking the No click-box instructs the Switch not to save the current configuration before restarting the
Switch. All of the configuration information entered from the last time Save Changes was executed, will be
lost.
Click the Restart button to restart the Switch.

Save Changes

The Switch has two levels of memory, normal RAM and non-volatile or NV-RAM. Some settings, require
you to restart the Switch before they will take effect. Restarting the Switch erases all settings in RAM and
reloads the stored settings from the NV-RAM. Thus, it is necessary to save all setting changes to NV-RAM
before rebooting the switch.
There are three Save Changes options:

Save Config – Saves current configuration to NV-RAM. This configuration will be loaded upon

rebooting.

Save Log – Save history log.
Save All – Save configuration and log.
