Bootup And Shutdown

Figure 22: Bootup and Shutdown, Part 1
This menu allows you to enable/disable services and to perform actions at boot. The
first part of the menu manages services. Check the box for the desired service and
click on "Start Selected" to start the service and have it start at the next boot. Click
on "Stop Selected" to stop the service and not have it start at boot.
The "Reboot System" button will cause the system to reboot.
The "Shutdown System" button shuts down the system in order to remove power.
Note: The RuggedRouter never enters a permanent shutdown state. If the
RuggedRouter is instructed to shutdown, either from Webmin or from a shell command,
it will reboot into a command line shell that waits five minutes before restarting
If you really want the router to remain powered but permanently inactive, you must issue the
shutdown, connect a terminal to the serial port, wait for the router to enter the shutdown
shell and issue a CTRL-C.
Once again, if you accidentally shutdown the router it will restart after five minutes.
