2.
Turn off the power supply switches on the rear panel of the Acme Packet 4500
by pressing the 0 side of the switch.

You can now unplug the Acme Packet 4500 from its power supply and continue with

Rebooting the Acme Packet 4500 shuts down the system in an orderly fashion and
then starts it up again. The operating system gracefully shuts down as processes are
terminated and the filesystem is stopped. While the system and its processes are
stopped, all call processing is immediately halted. You may therefore wish to
perform tasks that call for a reboot during off-peak maintenance hours.
Rebooting the Acme Packet 4500 is required every time you upgrade with a new
version of the Acme Packet 4500 software.
Before rebooting the Acme Packet 4500, save your configurations. Refer to the
Maintenance and Troubleshooting Guide for a full explanation of this procedure. The
save-config command is used to save the configuration in the example below.
