ctDLInitiateColdBoot
Module: CTRON-DOWNLOAD-MIB
OID (symbolic): CTRON-DOWNLOAD-MIB::ctDLInitiateColdBoot
OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.52.4.1.5.8.1.3
Node type: OBJECT-TYPE
Type: INTEGER
Access: read-write
Description: When written with a 1, the boot software initiates a system reboot.
When written with a 2, the boot software initiates a soft reboot of the system. The soft reboot does not perform the Boot PROM Power-Up diagnostics.
If only one form of reboot is supported initiate that reboot in both cases.
A read always returns a 0.
What is ctDLInitiateColdBoot?
This is a write-only trigger for remotely rebooting the device, choosing between a full diagnostic cold boot when written with 1 or a faster soft boot when written with 2, and always reading back as 0. It lets an admin restart hardware remotely without needing physical access to the device. For example, an admin writes 2 to perform a quick soft reboot after a configuration change, skipping the lengthy Boot PROM power-up diagnostics that a full cold boot would run.
