    Hello All,

    I have a 3200 that I was using for some network testing (didn't install any licenses on it).  I would like to use this 3200 in our production environment, but I still a lot of testing configuration on it.  I want wipe the config have start over with an initial config.  I know there is a way to do this with the GUI, but I no longer have GUI access to it and am looking to wipe it from the console.  We are using 5.0.3.3.  Thanks.

    Save your licenses by doing "show license verbose" and then do a "write erase all"

    Hi

     

    Or you can save your license to a file on the controller. So you can do an import license after you have cleared the config.

     

    (Aruba651) #license export license.txt
    Successfully exported 8 licenses from the license database to license.txt

     

    Regards Thomas

     As u mentioned in your query that there is no any license on controller then use the command as cjoseph suggested. 

     

    (Aruba650) # write erase all
    Switch will be factory defaulted. All the configuration and databases will be deleted. Press 'y' to proceed : yes

    (Aruba650) # reload

     

    This command take the controller to factory default....:)

    Just as a side note. My force of habit to do a "wr mem" before the reload negates the "write erase all."

     

    So make sure you do the commands exactly as stated.
