DESCRIPTION
A cold start occurs when you turn on the power to the Zyxel Device. The Zyxel Device
powers up, checks the hardware, and starts the system processes.
A warm start (without powering down and powering up again) occurs when you use the
Reboot button in the Reboot screen or when you use the reboot command. The Zyxel
Device writes all cached data to the local storage, stops the system processes, and then
does a warm start.
