Chapter 12: Shutting down and resetting a
switch
Shutting down the switch
Use this procedure to safely shut down a switch without interfering with device processes or
corrupting the software image. After the shutdown command is issued, the configuration is saved,
auto-save functionality is temporarily disabled, and configuration changes are not allowed until the
switch restarts. If the shutdown is cancelled, auto-save functionality returns to the state in which it
was previously functioning.
Procedure
1. Log on to ACLI in Privileged EXEC command mode.
2. At the command prompt, enter the following command:
shutdown [force] [minutes-to-wait <1–60>] [cancel]
