Reload module via snmp

[andy.carse]

I have a 6509 running Catos which I can't login via telnet or console, due to a memory low issue.

Is it posible to reload the active supervisor via snmp? The switch is in a remote office which is why I'd like to do it remotely.

It is possible to reload a switch with the use of SNMP, but first you have to configure the switch to support the reload command. This doesn’t actually doesn’t fix your problem, since you’re off-site, but at least it shows you the possibility of reloading the switch with SNMP.

I suggest that you should consider upgrading the 6509 if possible, it could prevent simple problems like this getting rather difficult.
