Chapter 8. Command Reference 197
save eth Saves the configuration settings for the Ethernet LAN into FLASH memory.
save filter Saves the bridging filtering database to FLASH memory. A reboot must be executed to
load the database for active use.
save sys Saves the name, message, and authentication password system settings into FLASH
memory.
ERASE
The erase command erases the entire routerÕs configuration or parts of it from FLASH memory. The parts that can
be erased include:
¥ System
¥ Ethernet LAN
¥ DSL and remote router database settings
¥ DHCP settings
¥ Filters
Once you erase part of the configuration, you will need to completely reconfigure that part.
Note
: An erase command does not take effect until after a reboot without a save command
Note: There is a time lag between the response issued by the erase command and the time that the data is actually
deleted from FLASH memory. Issue a sync command after an erase command before powering off the router.
This commits the changes to FLASH memory.
Examples:
erase all Erases the configuration settings for the system, Ethernet LAN, DSL line, DHCP, and
remote router database from FLASH memory.
erase atom Erases the ATM configuration settings.
erase dhcp Erases the DHCP configuration settings from FLASH memory. To clear all DHCP
information without erasing FLASH memory, use the command dhcp clear all records
(page 312).
erase dod Erases the current state of the remote router database.
erase eth Erases the configuration settings for the Ethernet LAN from FLASH memory.
erase filter Erases the current bridging filtering database from FLASH memory.When you issue this
command you must reboot (without a save).
erase sys Erases the name, message, and authentication password system settings from FLASH
memory.
