We all work remotely with Cisco routers and Switches, we often do login to do some configuration changes in the Cisco routers and Switches. What if we configured wrongly in the live Cisco routers and Switches which are located in the remote sites, we don’t enjoy the liberty of resetting the devices unless we have control over the power distribution.
In this scenario the “reload” command proves to be very handy and useful. Just before making any changes to the configuration we can use the “reload” command as demonstrated below
ITKE-Cisco#reload in ?
Delay before reload (mmm or hhh:mm)
ITKE-Cisco#reload in 10
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: no
Building configuration…
[OK]
Reload scheduled in 10 minutes by yasir on vty0 (10.0.0.5)
Proceed with reload? [confirm]
ITKE-Cisco#
ITKE-Cisco#
***
*** — SHUTDOWN in 0:05:00 —
***
The above demonstrated command will reload the device in 10 minutes. After applying the “reload” command we can proceed with the configuration changes. If things go wrong and we lost connectivity
to the device, then try back after 10 minutes as the device will get reloaded with the original startup-configuration which can helps us to restore the connectivity to the device.
Once we are sure about the new configuration and its working properly without any hassles there is always a way “reload cancel” command is there to cancel the reload.
ITKE-Cisco#reload cancel
I find this command to be very handy and useful especially when we have to telnet or SSH to remote Cisco router or a Switch.

Consumer Market
During this economic crisis Cisco is brave enough to acquire Pure Digital, the makers of the popular Flip line of portable video cameras for $590 million in stock. Cisco will also pay out $15 million in retention incentives for Pure employees who stay on with the new company.
More than 2 million Flip video cameras have been sold in the U.S. to date, and the move will expand Cisco’s consumer market presence with what is essentially, a high-end toy.

“The acquisition of Pure Digital is key to Cisco’s strategy to expand our momentum in the media-enabled home and to capture the consumer market transition to visual networking,” said Ned Hooper, senior vice president of Cisco’s Corporate Development and Consumer Groups. “Pure Digital has revolutionized the way people capture and share video with Flip Video. This acquisition will take Cisco’s consumer business to the next level as the company develops new video capabilities and drives the next generation of entertainment and communication experiences.”

Cisco has appointed a select group of Cisco Engineers to develop a state-of-the-art security force. ‘The Realm.” growing beyond the systems in which they were created into a group of powerful defenders. Forming a unified league of security, the defenders battle Botnets, Malware, Spam and Intruders in the Realm, assuring the safety and security of every citizen on the human network.

‘The Realm.”is an online comic that animates the pane flow and adds voice narration. Creatively it’s an engaging experience, not as complete as a full scale animation but more alive that just a flat 2D image.
