Powering Down a Switch
Simply unplugging the switch from the power source does not allow the switch to
complete executing tasks and could lead to flash memory corruption. For this
reason, open a Telnet session and use the Shutdown command to initiate an
orderly shut down, then power down the switch. Refer to the “Shutdown
Command” on page B-91.
