Powering Off an MX150
If you need to power off the MX150, follow the procedure in this topic.
Before you power off the device:
•
Ensure that you understand how to prevent electrostatic discharge damage. See
“Prevention of Electrostatic Discharge Damage” on page 151.
•
Ensure that you do not need to forward traffic through the device.
Ensure that you have the following parts and tools available to power off the device:
•
An ESD grounding strap
•
An external management device such as a PC
•
A cable to connect the external management device to the console port (CON) or
management port (MGMT) on the device
To power off the device:
1. Connect the management device (such as a PC) to the console (CON) port or the
management (MGMT) port on the device:
•
For connecting a management device to the console port, see “Connecting an MX150
to a Management Console” on page 90.
•
For connecting a management device to the management port, see “Connecting
an MX150 to a Network for Out-of-Band Management” on page 89
2. From the PC connected to the device, issue the following operational mode CLI
command:
user@host> request system halt
This command shuts down the device gracefully and preserves system state
information. A message displays on the console confirming that the operating system
has halted.
