Fortress Bridge: Administration

67

The reboot option power cycles the Bridge, ending all sessions 
and forcing Secure Client devices (and any other Fortress 
Bridges) in communication with the Bridge to re-key in order to 
start a new session.

Log on to the Bridge GUI 

 account and choose 

 from the menu on the left.

On the 

 screen under 

, click 

.

 Beyond the

initial blink at the

beginning of the boot
process, there are no
LED indications in a
Bridge in blackout
mode (refer to Section
3.7).

On the resulting system dialog, click 

 again (or 

 the 

reboot).

The Bridge emits a short chirp and its front-panel LEDs 
light briefly and then go briefly dark, as the Bridge begins 
the boot process. 

 LED exhibits a slow green flash 

when the LEDs come back on. Then the Bridge, running 
the upgraded firmware, returns to normal operation (the 

 LED lights solid green).

You can reboot the Bridge from the front panel (described in 
Section 3.10.2), from the Bridge CLI (described in Section 
6.5.4), or from the Bridge GUI (described above).

Several configuration changes on the Bridge require a reboot 
in order to take effect. Software upgrades require you to 
reboot, as well. You will also need to reboot the Bridge to apply 
network configuration changes, and you may want to do so as 
part of a troubleshooting operation.
