41.1 Resetting the Device
The Maintenance Actions page allows you to remotely reset the device. In addition, before
resetting the device, you can choose the following options:
Save the device's current configuration to the device's flash memory (non-volatile).
Perform a graceful shutdown, whereby device reset starts only after a user-defined
time (i.e., timeout) or after no more active traffic exists (the earliest thereof).
Notes:
• Throughout the Web interface, parameters displayed with a lightning symbol
are not applied on-the-fly and require that you reset the device for them to take
effect.
• When you modify parameters that require a device reset, once you click the
Submit button in the relevant page, the toolbar displays "Reset" (see ''Toolbar
Description'' on page 50) to indicate that a device reset is required.
• After you reset the device, the Web GUI is displayed in Basic view (see
''Displaying Navigation Tree in Basic and Full View'' on page 51).
• Upon reboot, the device restores the settings from its configuration file. However,
if reboot attempts fail three times consecutively, the device resets the
configuration file by restoring factory defaults before attempting to reboot.
