Syntax

Parameter

Description

<all> Reloads all IAPs in a cluster.

Usage Guidelines

Use this command to reboot an IAP after making configuration changes or under the guidance of Aruba Networks customer support. The reload command powers down the IAP, making it unavailable for configuration. After the IAP reboots, you can access it via a local console connected to the serial port, or through an SSH, Telnet, or UI session. If you need to troubleshoot the IAP during a reboot, use a local console connection.

After you use the reload command, the IAP prompts you to confirm this action. If you have not saved your configuration, the IAP returns the following message:

Do you want to save the configuration (y/n):

Enter y to save the configuration.
Enter n to not save the configuration.
Press [Enter] to exit the command without saving changes or rebooting the IAP.

If your configuration has already been saved, the IAP returns the following message:

Do you really want to reset the system(y/n):

Enter y to reboot the IAP.
Enter n to cancel this action.

The command will timeout if you do not enter y or n.

Example

The following command assumes you have already saved your configuration and you must reboot the IAP:

The IAP returns the following messages:

Do you really want to reset the system(y/n): y

System will now restart!

...

Restarting system.
