Hi

Just issue the command 'write erase' in enable mode(the hash or # prompt). Then save by issuing 'write mem' and then 'reload' the device.

You don't want to do a wr mem after the wr erase , this will write your existing running config back into startup and the config will still be there .

just do the 'write erase' or 'erase start' and reboot the router. then say no to setup.

Agreed. Don't do the write mem as I previously advised. I had a serious case of brain cramp there.

In my router I have following options for erase:

PL-NR01#erase ?
/all Erase all files(in NVRAM)
/no-squeeze-reserve-space Do not reserve space for squeeze operation
flash: Filesystem to be erased
nvram: Filesystem to be erased
startup-config Erase contents of
configuration memory

Which option I can use to clear current configuration ?
Does "erase startup-config" is correct ?

Thanks

yes 'erase startup-config' should work fine at the # prompt. then just reboot the router and say no to setup. and you router will be back to factory defaults.
