    folks i'm brain dead when it comes to routers. I have an old cisco 2600 that hasnt been used in 4+ years. theres no record of any passwords in teh office. anyway I want to factory reset this/wipe any configuration information from it.

    I've connected a serial cable and booted up

    I've managed to create an account using procedure 2 outlined here http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps259/products_password_recovery09186a0080094675.shtml

    now when i log in its obvious that the configuratio/set up is related to my compnay coz it mentions the name.

    how would i go about wiping any configuration/rules etc and setting it back to factory default
