Just got a Cisco 851 router, and I inadvertently erased the startup config.
I need toget back to it's "out-of-the box" original config.
'write erase' command did not get me back.
Please advise
Thank you
 
Might be easy.......

Boot the router up and then do a dir to display contents of flash.
Look for an SDM file ending in .cfg
If exists then do the following:
copy flash:fullfilename start
reload router and if asked that config has changed do you want to same then answer no. Should bring you back from the edge.
 
Thank you, this worked exactly how I needed it to.
Thanks again
