System Power

In certain situations, you might need to power off the switch instead of rebooting. To power off the switch, run the cl-poweroff command, which shuts down the switch.

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo cl-poweroff

Alternatively, you can run the Linux poweroff command, which gracefully shuts down the switch (the switch LEDs stay on). On certain switches, such as the NVIDIA SN2201, SN2010, SN2100, SN2100B, SN3420, SN3700, SN3700C, SN4410, SN4600C, SN4600, SN4700, SN5400, or SN5600, the switch reboots instead of powering off.

cumulus@switch:~$ sudo poweroff
