1.8 Starting and Stopping the NWA3000-N series
AP

Always use
Maintenance > Shutdown
or the

command
before you turn off the NWA3000-N series AP or remove the power. Not
doing so can cause the firmware to become corrupt.

apply configuration files or run shell scripts although you may temporarily lose
access to network resources.
