reboot - Reboot Output
The
Reboot Output
command is used to turn a port, or ports, off, and t
hen back on. The purpose is to ‘reboot’ a
server or device by cycling the power. Ports that are currently off will be turned on. Ports that are currently on will be
turned off, then back on.
The reboot time duration for each port is assigned in the
rbdelay
time option.
Any Port may be referred to by either Port Numbers or Port Names. All ports with identical port names will be rebooted
together (i.e., a Port Group)

The keyword “all” is a valid argument
