Before you power off an ACX5448 router:
Ensure that you have taken the necessary precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage.
See "Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage" on page
Ensure that you do not need to forward traffic through the router.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to power off the router:
An ESD grounding strap
An external management device such as a PC
An RJ-45 to DB-9 rollover cable to connect the external management device to the console port
A Phillips number 2 screwdriver
To power off your ACX5400 router:
1. Connect to the router using one of the following methods:
Connect a management device to the console (CON) port on the router. For instructions about
connecting a management device to the console (CON) port, see

You can shut down the router from a management device on your out-of-band management network.

2. Shut down Junos OS from the external management device by issuing the request vmhost halt
