You may find that there is a time in which you haven’t got access via the standard ASAOS CLI to change, amend or edit your current configuration.<\/p>\n
In this example we will show you the steps required for removing the configuration via ROMMON mode.<\/p>\n
Here are the steps :<\/p>\n
1. Reboot the device
2. On boot hit `escape` so that you break the normal startup process and enter ROMMON.
3. Change the current confreg so that you can bypass the current startup config sing the command:<\/p>\n
rommon #1>confreg 0x41<\/pre>\n4. Reset the appliance with the boot command, <\/p>\n
rommon #2>boot<\/pre>\n5. You will then be presented with the ScreenOS CLI and the ASA having a completely clear config. Run the commands :<\/p>\n
ciscoasa > en [when asked for password just press enter]
ciscoasa # conf t
ciscoasa (config)# config-register 0x01
ciscoasa (config)# copy run start
ciscoasa (config)# reload<\/pre>\n6. Your ASA will now be rebooted and the device will be booted into a blank configuration. <\/p>\n
