CHAPTER 48
Reboot
48.1 Overview
Use this to restart the device (for example, if the device begins behaving erratically). See also
Section 1.4 on page 55 for information on different ways to start and stop the ZyWALL.
48.1.1 What You Need To Know About Reboot
If you applied changes in the Web configurator, these were saved automatically and do not
change when you reboot. If you made changes in the CLI, however, you have to use the
write command to save the configuration before you reboot. Otherwise, the changes are lost
when you reboot.
Reboot is different to reset; (see Section 49.1 on page 748) reset returns the device to its
default configuration.
48.2 The Reboot Screen
The Reboot screen is part of the Web configurator so that remote users can restart the device.
To access this screen, click Maintenance > Reboot.
Figure 554 Maintenance > Reboot
Click the Reboot button to restart the ZyWALL. Wait a few minutes until the login screen
appears. If the login screen does not appear, type the IP address of the device in your Web
browser.
You can also use the CLI command
reboot to restart the ZyWALL.
