# How to restart a DECnet circuit

Restarting a DECnet circuit rarely helps to resolve a problem, however telling somebody that you have tried restarting it often makes them happy, so all DECnet managers should know how to do it. Below is an example of restarting the circuit x25-spain on cernr1.

Invoke NCP on any DECnet node and type:

    	NCP> set exec node cernr1 user xxx pass yyy
    	NCP> set circ x25-spain state off
    	NCP> set circ x25-spain state on
    	NCP> exit
