3.2.2 Managing System Reset
System reset refers to a complete shutdown and reboot of the 4Motion system.
You can use the CLI to manually reset the system. It is also possible that the
system may be reset because of an internal or external error, or after the NPU is
upgraded.
After the system is reset and boots up, you can use the CLI to retrieve the reason
for the last system reset. For more information about using the CLI to display the
reason for system reset, refer to “Displaying the Reason for the Last System Reset”
on page 96.
3.2.2.1 Resetting the system
To reset the system, run the following command:
npu(config)# reset
A few seconds after you run this command, the 4Motion system is shut down, and
then boots up with the last saved configuration.
