Clearing Configuration Information
This section describes how to clear configuration information.
Deleting a Stored Configuration File
Caution You cannot restore a file after it has been deleted.
To delete a saved configuration from Flash memory, use the delete flash:filename privileged EXEC
command. Depending on the setting of the file prompt global configuration command, you might be
prompted for confirmation before you delete a file. By default, the access point prompts for confirmation
on destructive file operations. For more information about the file prompt command, refer to the Cisco
IOS Command Reference guide.
Working with Software Images
This section describes how to archive (download and upload) software image files, which contain the
system software, Cisco IOS software, radio firmware, and the web management HTML files.
You download an access point image file from a TFTP, FTP, or RCP server to upgrade the access point
software. You upload an access point image file to a TFTP, FTP, or RCP server for backup purposes. You
can use this uploaded image for future downloads to the same access point or another of the same type.
Step 5

running or startup configuration file to a network server.
