To restart a WX switch and reboot the software, type the following

When you restart the WX switch, the switch boots using the new MSS
image. The switch also sends the MAP version of the new boot image to
MAPs and restarts the MAPs. After a MAP restarts, it checks the version
of the new MAP boot image to make sure the boot image is newer than
the boot image currently installed on the MAP. If the boot image is newer,
the MAP completes installation of its new boot image by copying the
boot image into the MAP's flash memory, which takes about 30 seconds,
then restarts again. The upgrade of the MAP is complete after the second
restart.
