From the Navigation menu, select System → System Utilities → System Reset.

Result:

The System Reset window opens.

Reset — If you click Reset, this command resets the switch without powering it off. Reset means that all network connections are terminated and the boot code executes. The switch uses the stored configuration to initialize the switch. You are prompted to confirm that the reset should proceed if there are any unsaved changes. The LEDs on the switch indicate a successful reset.

Equivalent CLI command: reload.

Warm Reset — If you click Warm Reset (VLNC4x only), this command re-initializes the software, but leaves the hardware devices untouched. This means that all network connections through the VLNC40-family packs stay up, even as the boot code executes. However, management connections on the VLNC40-family packs will be disrupted. The switch uses the stored configuration to initialize. You are prompted to confirm that the reset should proceed if there are any unsaved changes. The LEDs on the switch indicate a successful reset. The warm option is supported only on VLNC40-family packs.

Equivalent CLI command: reload warm.
