Clearing and Removing Configuration Settings
To erase settings, enter one of the following commands.
• To clear all the configuration for a specified command and all its subcommands, enter the following
command:
FWSM# clear configurationcommand [ subconfigurationcommand ]
This command clears all the current configuration for the specified configuration command. If you
only want to clear the configuration for a specific subcommand, you can enter a value for
subconfigurationcommand.
For example, to clear the configuration for all aaa commands, enter the following command:
FWSM# clear aaa
To clear the configuration for only aaa authentication commands, enter the following command:
FWSM# clear aaa authentication
• To disable the specific parameters or options of a command or subcommand, enter the following
command:
FWSM# no configurationcommand [ subconfigurationcommand ] qualifier
In this case, you use the no command to remove the specific configuration identified by qualifier.
For example, to remove a specific nat command, enter enough of the command to identify it
uniquely as follows:
FWSM# no nat (inside) 1
• To erase the startup configuration, enter the following command:
FWSM# write erase
• To erase the running configuration, enter the following command:
FWSM# clear configure all
Note In multiple context mode, if you enter clear configure all from the system configuration, you
also remove all contexts and stop them from running.
Creating Text Configuration Files Offline
This guide describes how to use the CLI to configure the FWSM; when you save commands, the changes
are written to a text file. Instead of using the CLI, however, you can edit a text file directly and paste a
configuration at the configuration mode command-line prompt in its entirety, or line by line.
Alternatively, you can download a text file to the FWSM Flash memory. See the “Downloading a Text
Configuration” section on page 16-6 for information on downloading the configuration file to the
FWSM.
In most cases, commands described in this guide are preceded by a CLI prompt. The prompt in the
following example is “FWSM(config)#”:
FWSM(config)# class gold
