In an attempt to clear the switch configuration, you’ve issued the command erase all zeroize.

The command erase all zeroize performs a secure erase on the switch, which deletes all customer data including startup-config and stored credentials. This process can take up to an hour depending on the hardware and storage media.

It does not retain running config (Option A).

It does not restore the factory AOS-CX image (Option B).

Admin credentials are deleted as part of the secure erase (Option C is incorrect).

Therefore, this command securely wipes all data and resets the device.
