How to reboot Cisco Router and Switch remotely with schedule?

If you are the one who usually have to manage your Router and Switch in your Network remotely, you must know how to reboot those with schedule.

Why you must know these?

It's simple. Because you definitely will loose your remote connection if you wrongly modify Access-List or Routing or something that related with Internet Connection.

So, you should run below command in your router or swich global configuration mode before you make any changes.

Router(config)#reload in 5

Proceed with reload? [confirm] yes

reload means asking router to reboot.

in 5 means to reboot the router in next 5 minutes.

May you all be happy.
(Be knowledgeabel, pass it on then)

We are facing a lot of problem when we virtualized our Servers, 1) Routing and Switching Problem Routing become the issue when we create Virtual Switch and VLANs according to production requirement. Network Team might need some time to change on their end to meet with Server Virtualization Team changes on their end. ၂) Firewall Services Physical Firewall are difficult to manage due to the large number of rules needed to satisfy business requirements. New applications, new projects, and new networks all come with potential security requirements, which impact centralized firewall management. ၃) Load Balancing Let's say your company deploys a new physical load balancer for each tenant, resulting in increased capital expenditures. Once a tenant reaches their maximum capacity, it ca...
