Are you trying to shut down the interface to which you are currently
connected? Do not do that!
Try this. Download the config. Amend config to shut the interface and then
copy the amended config to start-up. And then reload. But beware! If this is
the only interface you can remotely access the router from, then you will
not be able to log back in.
However, if you wish to shut down any other interface then that's easy.
Enter interface config mode and type shutdown.

If trying to shutdown the interface your connected to, it will drop you! If
you want to shutdown the interface do this:
<router>#Config t
<router>(config)# int <interface>
<router>(config-if)# shut
exit
do a show int and that interface will show administrativly down

I don't think that it is a good idea to do this. If you copy the config to
start-up and you shutdown the wrong interface that you will not be able to
get in to it. And the only way to get back in to the router is to console
in. Which is hard to do, expecially from a remote site. If you do it to
the running config first and let's say that you shutdown the wrong
interface, you can always get someone to power cycle the router. Then you
will be able to gain access back to the router. It's alot easier to get
someone to power cycle the router, then to console in to a router.

Depending on the version of the IOS you can use the reboot command with a
time argument after it which will make it reboot after the specified
time. Do that before you start the configuration process and if you mess
up you just have to wait for it to reboot on its own.

Since 12.3(1) you can use the 'command scheduler' to schedule commands
to run at a specified time. This way you can make your changes upfront,
schedule them for a quiet time and then hope your pager will stay silent
;)

Think about what you just said. If what you said is true, then my question
is what good would a reboot do if the config that you just modify is in the
start-up file? Because you wrote, and I quote " Try this. Download the
config. Amend config to shut the interface and then copy the amended config
to start-up. And then reload.". What I'm saying is that never make your
changes to the startup config first. Always, make it to the running config.
If it works then save the config to the startup file.
