Rebooting Switches

You can reboot a switch using the Aruba Central UI.

To reboot a switch, complete the following steps:

1. In the Network Operations app, set the filter to one of the options under Groups, Labels, or Sites. Ensure that the filter selection contains at least one switch. For all devices, set the filter to Global.

The dashboard context for the selected filter is displayed.

2. Under Manage, click Devices > Switches.

A list of switches is displayed in the List view.

3. Click Online to display a table with the list of online switches.

4. In the Switches table, click the switch to reboot.

The Switches Details page corresponding to the switch is displayed.

5. In the Actions drop-down, click Reboot.

A Reboot Switch dialog box is displayed.

6. Click Continue to reboot the switch.

All clients connected to this switch are disconnected and the switch reboots.

The Switches Details page takes less than a minute to update the interface status after the switch is rebooted and reconnected to Aruba Central.
