2.Click [Commit]. Disregard the selection in the [Reboot Mode:] drop-down list; it does not affect the commit process. These changes are saved to a permanent storage. The previous settings are copied to a backup storage so that they can

be recalled if your new settings do not work properly (see the below rebooting instructions).

Rebooting the device using Configuration Manager

To reboot the device, display the [Commit & Reboot] page, select the appropriate [Reboot Mode:] from the drop-down list, and then click [Reboot].
