Clearing a Switch Configuration
There are two commands that allow you to clear the switch configuration: clrcnf and clrallcnf.
To clear switch provisioning data such as the PNNI controller and SPVC connections, enter the clrcnf
command. This command clears all configuration data except the following:
• IP address configuration
• Node name
• Software version data for each card
• SNMP community string, contact, and location
• Date, time, time zone, and GMT offset
• MPSM feature licenses in the license pool
To clear the entire configuration, use the clrallcnf command using the following format:
M8850_LA.8.PXM.a > clrallcnf [clrLicense]
This command clears all the provisioning data and most of the general switch configuration parameters,
such as the switch name and SNMP configuration. The clrallcnf command clears all IP addresses except
the boot IP address.
If you include the clrLicense option, the command clears all MPSM feature licenses. If the clrLicense
option is not included, the licenses remain on the switch, but they cannot be used unless the switch runs
the same software versions that were in use when the configuration was cleared.
Clearing a Slot Configuration
The clrsmcnf command allows you to clear the configuration for a single service module. All
provisioning is deleted and any MPSM licenses in use are returned to the license pool. If the -all
parameter is added, card specific information is deleted too. The card specific information for most cards
is the software revision number. For MPSM cards, the card specific information includes the service
selected (ATM, circuit emulation, or Frame Relay) and the interface type selected.
Note When replacing a T1 or T3 card with a E1 or E3 card, or vice versa, you must enter the clrsmcnf
command on the appropriate slot before you install the replacement card.
