We need to reboot a host of switches and I thought the CLI "Reboot" would be the thing to use. I tried using it on a test switch and the first time, the job finished with Success but the switch did nothing. I thought that perhaps it was expecting a password to get into Enable mode so I added our default one. Later attempts now just fail with this error:
Error: Connection closed while executing the command #MODE_ENABLE write memory #INTERACTIVE reload in 001yes/nonoProceedyes #ENDS_INTERACTIVE #MODE_END_ENABLE Response:
1) How does the CLI template actually get in Enable mode to reload the switch if the enable secret is not provided in the CLI ?
2) Why would I get a Success in the Jobs screen but the switch did nothing ? I selected this switch manually , so I know it went to the right one.
