Hi All,

Is there any command to power off the router from the command line.(Or)the only possible way is to manually switch off the power??

Thanks in Advance,

There are no commands to actually power off the routers.

Cisco is going to introduce in the new 6500 series switches which will have an option of reloading the device which will be seen as a power off and power on.

But again its a hard reload as against switching off.
