Rebooting the Switch
You can reboot the switch either by using the Reboot Switch command in the
console Main menu or by pressing the recessed Reset button located to the
right of the Power LED.

Generally, you only need to reboot the switch when it needs to recognize a
change in its hardware or software (console) configuration. Some
circumstances in which you will need to reboot the switch are:
Adding new modules or moving modules to unused slots (page 6)
Installing a module in a slot that was previously occupied by a different
type of module—for example, installing a 10Base-FL Module in a slot that
was previously used for a 100VG Module—(page 13)
Changing certain switch configuration parameters through the console
interface. (In this case, the console provides messages indicating when
the switch must be rebooted for the configuration change to be activated.)
You do not need to reboot the switch when:
Replacing a module with the same type of module.
Adding or changing a recessed transceiver in a switch module designed
to accept such transceivers. (The module must be removed from the
Switch 2000 for this procedure. Note that the 10Base-FL Module is not
designed for adding or changing transceivers.)
