erase
The erase command erases the contents of non-volatile memory
(EEPROM memory). Erasing EEPROM restores all parameters to factory
default values. The syntax is:
erase
The erase command prompts for confirmation before erasing the
non-volatile (EEPROM) memory.
The erase command does not erase the Ethernet address.
Since the erase command erases the IP address, you may need
to use the addr command to re-enter the Remote Access
Concentrator's IP address before reloading any software (if you
are using BOOTP or RARP, you should not set the IP address).
The command display looks like this:
erase
monitor:: erase
Erase all non-volatile EEPROM memory? (y/n) [n]:: y
Erasing <65504 or 8160 bytes> of non-volatile memory.
Please wait...
