Rebooting the device

CAUTION:
A reboot can interrupt network services.
•
To avoid configuration loss, use the save command to save the running configuration before a reboot.
•
For more information about the save command, see
• Before a reboot, use the display startup and display boot-loader commands to verify that you have
correctly specified the startup configuration file and startup software images. If the main startup
software images are corrupted or missing, you must respecify a set of main startup software images
before using the reboot command to reboot the device. Otherwise, the device cannot start up. For more
information about the two display commands, see
You can reboot the device using one of the following methods:
Power off and then power on the device. This method might cause data loss, and is the
•
least-preferred method.
• Immediately reboot the device at the CLI.
Schedule a reboot at the CLI, so the device automatically reboots at the specified time or after the
•
specified period of time.
Reboot at the CLI enables easy remote device maintenance.

Configuration guidelines

If you execute the scheduler reboot at or scheduler reboot delay command multiple times, the most recent
configuration takes effect.
In standalone mode, if an active/standby switchover occurs, the automatic reboot configuration is
canceled.
In IRF mode, the automatic reboot configuration is effective for all member devices, and will be canceled
if a switchover between the global active MPU and a global standby MPU occurs.
For data security, the device does not reboot while it is performing file operations.
