clear config
2-46 Basic Configuration
Do you want to continue (y/n) [n]?
clear config
Use this command to clear the user‐defined configuration parameters.
Syntax
clear config [all]
Parameters
Defaults
If all is not specified, stacking configuration parameters will not be cleared.
Mode
Switch command, read‐write.
Usage
Executing this command will clear the configuration in both NVRAM and on the memory card, if
one is installed on the switch.
This command will not clear the IP address of the switch. Use the clear ip address command to
clear the IP address.
When using the clear config command to clear configuration parameters in a stack, it is important
to remember the following:
• Use clear config to clear configuration parameters without clearing stack unit IDs. This
command WILL NOT clear stack parameters and avoids the process of re‐numbering the
stack.
• Use clear config all when it is necessary to clear all configuration parameters, including stack
unit IDs (if applicable) and switch priority values.
• Use the clear ip address command to clear the IP address.
Configuration parameters and stacking information can also be cleared on the master unit only by
selecting option 10 (restore configuration to factory defaults) from the boot menu on switch
startup. This selection will leave stacking priorities on all other units, if applicable.
Example
This example shows how to clear configuration parameters (including stacking parameters, if
applicable):
D2(su)->clear config all
all (Optional) Clears user‐defined configuration parameters (and stack unit
numbers and priorities, if applicable).
