Q

What is the power button on the gateway doing when pushed?

A

When the power button on the gateway's front is pushed the gateway shuts down the operating system and quits all running services securely.

Using the power button ensures a safe shutdown of the running system and shall be the preferred method to stop the device's operation before the power is removed for example.

A wake up service such as Wake On LAN is not supported in this state.

Pressing the button again will initiate the boot sequence.
