Booting the Router
To restart the router with a modified configuration file or router image file, or to
recover if the router experiences a problem, you need to boot the router. In this
book, the term boot refers to a warm-start of the router. When you warm-start a
router, the power remains on while the router resets; you do not use the power
switch to turn the router off and then on.
