      Hello, after i connect through openVPN 2 days ago, the appliance found off and needed to reboot.
      Is there a possible explanation for this ?

        It just shutdown without logging anything. Usually a hardware problem. Overheated perhaps?

          @stephenw10 most probably accidental SW button press.
          Thank you Mr. Steve.

            If it shutdown because an ACPI power button was pressed you would see the shutdown processes logged. If it powered off immediately without logging anything it either lost power, a hardware switch, or failed in some other way.

              @stephenw10 THANKS A LOT !
              i'm sure now that you are right. the device was plugged off from power (i guess on purpose - pissed off PLC guy because we chose another solution).
