Use the Configuration Clear screen to clear configurations for the various features of the Extreme AirDefense system.
Extreme AirDefense provides a comprehensive set of options that are used to have granular control on the data that can be retained or cleared. Extreme AirDefense configuration settings and the data that is stored on the physical Extreme AirDefense instance can be broadly classified into the following broad categories:
