If its due to some misconfigurations you lost connectivity to the router and need to reload it remotely , then you require a Remote Power controller / Remote power Management device.

Hi,

best practise to prevent losing connectivity due to misconfigurations:

issue "reload in 30" from CLI before you start config changes.

The router will reload in 30 minutes with the latest start-up config.

So if you make any misconfiguration, the router will recover in 30 minutes latest.

If you make your changes and everything is OK, you just issue "reload cancel" and save the new running config to the start-up.

BR,
