Undoing Commands
When you enter a command, the command line is added to the running configuration file (running-
config).
To disable a command and remove it from the running-config, enter the no command, then the original
command. For example, to delete an IP address configured on an interface, use the
no ip address
ip-address command.
NOTE: Use the help or ? command as described in Obtaining Help.
The first bold line shows the assigned IP address, the second bold line shows the no form of the IP
address command, and the last bold line shows the IP address removed.
