Resetting the Cisco Wireless LAN ControllerResetting the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller
After you have installed and configured a Cisco Wireless LAN Controller, you can reset the Cisco
Wireless LAN Controller and view the reboot process on the CLI console using one of the following two
methods:
• Unplug the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller from its power source.
• Enter the reset system command. The reset script prompts you if there are any unsaved
changes. Enter ‘y’ to save changes from active volatile RAM to NVRAM (non-volatile RAM)
before rebooting the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller.
When the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller reboots, the CLI console displays the following reboot
information:
• Initializing the system.
• Verifying the hardware configuration.
• Loading microcode into memory.
• Verifying the Operating System software load.
• Initializing with its stored configurations.
• Displaying the login prompt.
You have seen the boot process on the CLI console. Either unplug your serial connection, or enter a
valid login and password to reenter the CLI.
Continue with Using the Cisco WLAN Solution CLI
.
Note: If you have already cleared the active volatile RAM as described in Clearing
Configurations, entering ‘n’ in response to this prompt prevents the volatile RAM to
NVRAM (non-volatile RAM) from overwriting the cleared configuration in NVRAM. In
this case you will be directed to the Startup Wizard
.
