Reboot
Rebooting the Acme Packet 6300/6350 shuts down the system in an orderly fashion
and then starts it up again. The operating system gracefully shuts down as processes
are terminated and the file system is stopped. While the system and its processes are
stopped, all call processing is immediately halted. You may therefore wish to perform
tasks that call for a reboot during off-peak maintenance hours.
Rebooting the Acme Packet 6300/6350 is required every time you upgrade with a new
version of the Acme Packet 6300/6350 software.
Before rebooting the Acme Packet 6300/6350, save your configurations. The save-
config command is used to save the configuration in the example below.
For a full explanation and all options for the reboot command used in the example
below, refer to the ACLI Reference Guide.
