1.6 Starting and Stopping the NXC
Here are some of the ways to start and stop the NXC.
Always use Maintenance > Shutdown or the shutdown command
before you turn off the NXC or remove the power. Not doing so can
cause the firmware to become corrupt.
The NXC does not stop or start the system processes when you apply configuration files or run shell scripts
although you may temporarily lose access to network resources.
Table 5 Starting and Stopping the NXC
METHOD DESCRIPTION
Turning on the power A cold start occurs when you turn on the power to the NXC. The NXC powers up, checks
the hardware, and starts the system processes.
Rebooting the NXC A warm start (without powering down and powering up again) occurs when you use the
Reboot button in the Reboot screen or when you use the reboot command. The NXC
writes all cached data to the local storage, stops the system processes, and then does a
warm start.
Using the RESET button If you press the RESET button, the NXC sets the configuration to its default values and then
reboots.
