17.7 The Shutdown Screen
Use this screen to turn off the NSA or perform a software restart. A software restart is faster than turning the NSA off and then turning it on again. Before shutting down or restarting, check the System Status > Active Sessions screen to make sure that no one is logged into the NSA or transferring files to or from the NSA.
