  I guess if you can login to other system with sufficient privileges, you can use the command 'shutdown now'. There are other options too.

  Isn't it as simple as logging in to another system as root and simply issuing the 'reboot' command?

  Yeah, its simple. If the other system is linux/unix, we can use ssh.

  log in into the other system as root, give command #ssh #-Link-Snipped-#
  next it asks for saving the key, type yes for saving the public-private key pair on that remote system, this is done one time only.
  next type root password.
  
  xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx --> remote system ip
  
  ssh -X #-Link-Snipped-# for interactive mode.
