Reboot | Shutdown

The Reboot | Shutdown screen provides functions for rebooting the NSv virtual machine, enabling debug mode, and enabling SafeMode. To perform an action, position the focus and then press Enter to select the desired action. Select Yes in the confirmation dialog, then press Enter again.

The actions available on the Reboot | Shutdown screen are:

• Reboot SonicWall – Restarts the NSv Series virtual machine with current configuration settings.

• Shutdown SonicWall – Powers off the NSv Series virtual machine.

• Boot with factory default settings – Restarts the NSv Series virtual machine using factory default settings. All configuration settings are erased.

• Boot SonicWall into debug – Restarts the NSv Series virtual machine into debug mode. Normally this operation is performed under the guidance of SonicWall Technical Support.

• Boot SonicWall into safemode – Puts the NSv Series virtual machine into SafeMode. For more information, see Using SafeMode on the NSv.
