Is there a way to power cycle the B210 remotely?

Updated May 26, 2023

Issue Details

I setup a B210 in my lab where I don't want to go to the lab everytime I would like to reboot it. So I'm wondering is ther any way to power recycle the B210 remotely? or could we send some kind of commands to the B210 to reboot it? or any OS on B210 so that we can use ssh to log into the system to enter some sort of commands to reboot the HW?
 

Solution

Firstly, there is no kernel running inside the B210, so the ssh option does not exist.
There is no way to do the power cycling remotely directly, while some customers would put it on a USB power hub which has a switch where they could cut the power of the power hub, and switch it on so as to indirectly power cycle the B210.
