Command-Line Interface (CLI)
The CLI allows you to use text-based commands to configure the NXC. You can
access it using remote management (for example, SSH or Telnet) or via the
console port. See the Command Reference Guide for more information.
Console Port
You can use the console port to manage the NXC using CLI commands. See the
Command Reference Guide for more information about the CLI.
The default settings for the console port are as follows.
1.5 Starting and Stopping the NXC
Here are some of the ways to start and stop the NXC.
Always use

cause the firmware to become corrupt.

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.
