Restart
Variants of Restart
Restart
A restart (reboot) is when you cause the PBX to reboot while it is already functioning. The
configuration of the PBX is not deleted.
Variants of Restart
A restart is required, for example, in the following situations:
•
After the operating software on the PBX has been updated (firmware update)
•
After the operating software on the PBX crashes
•
After a change to the configuration that cannot be applied when the PBX is in operation
In some cases, the PBX immediately performs an automatic restart.
There are also various options for performing a restart yourself when necessary. The variants
are differentiated as follows:
Immediate Restart
During an immediate restart, no consideration is made of existing calls. This means that all
connections to the web server, all calls and all data services closed immediately. Unsaved data
is lost.
Delayed Restart
A delayed restart runs just like an immediate restart, except that current calls are taken into
consideration. As soon as all of the existing calls have ended (also before the expiration of the
time specified), the PBX restarts. During the delay, the PBX prevents new calls from being
established. If a call is still active when the timeout occurs, the call is interrupted in order to
carry out the restart.
