Cisco Nexus 9000 switch secure erase

Cisco Nexus 9000 switches utilize persistent storage to maintain system software images, switch configuration, software logs, and operational history. Each of these areas can contain user-specific information such as details on network architecture and design, and potential target vectors for would-be attackers. The secure erase feature enables you comprehensively to erase this information, which you can do when you return a switch with return merchandise authorization (RMA), upgrade or replace a switch, or decommission a system that has reached its end-of-life.
