DESCRIPTION
A cold start occurs when you turn on the power to the device. The 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 device writes all cached data to the local storage,
stops the system processes, and then does a warm start.
If you press the RESET button, the device sets the configuration to its
default values and then reboots.
Clicking Maintenance > Shutdown > Shutdown or using the shutdown
command writes all cached data to the local storage and stops the system
processes. Wait for the device to shut down and then manually turn off or
remove the power. It does not turn off the power.

simply turns off. It does not stop the system processes or write cached data
to local storage.
