Cisco::Tip::Reload in X



"reload in x" and "reload cancel"
When making configuration changes remotely that you think might disconnect you if you make a mistake, setup an automatic reboot in a few minutes, make the change, if you screw up and get disconnected, it will restart with the old config. After making a successful change, write the config and then cancel the restart.

The following example reloads the software on the router in 10 minutes:
Router# reload in 10

Router# Reload scheduled for 11:57:08 PDT Fri Apr 21 1996 (in 10 minutes)
Proceed with reload? [confirm]
The following example reloads the software on the router at 1:00 p.m. today:
Router# reload at 13:00

Router# Reload scheduled for 13:00:00 PDT Fri Apr 21 1996 (in 1 hour and 2 minutes)
Proceed with reload? [confirm]

The following example reloads the software on the router on April 20 at 2:00 a.m.:
