I believe cold start is the router shut down then power back up.

How come the result from show ver said router had been reload instead of power on?

==============

router1 uptime is 2 days, 16 hours, 55 minutes

System returned to ROM by reload at 23:30:12 CDT Thu Apr 24 2008

Hi,

When you reload the router using the reload command this is also called a cold restart and the show version shows "System returned to ROM by reload", please check the below document for further details about cold and warm reload:

Hello Johnson,

It seems that the router is reloaded by the

"reload" command.

It would display as " returned to ROM by power on " when there is complete power shutdown to router which is a cold start.
