Parameters
device: Specifies the name of a storage medium, for example flash or cfa0.
FAT16: Formats a storage medium using the FAT16 format. FAT16 does not support Tab matching and
must be entered completely if used, and is not applicable to a Flash card.
FAT32: Formats a storage medium using the FAT32 format. FAT32 does not support Tab matching and
must be entered completely if used, and is not applicable to a Flash card.
Usage guidelines
After a storage medium is formatted, all files on it are erased and cannot be restored. If a startup
configuration file exists on the storage medium, formatting the storage medium results in loss of the
startup configuration file.

# Format the flash.
<Sysname> format flash:
All data on flash: will be lost, proceed with format? [Y/N]:y
