DojoHow to reset a MikroTik configuration with RouterOS 7
To reset a MikroTik from the terminal, use the /system reset-configuration command: with no-defaults=yes, the router boots empty instead of with the factory configuration; with run-after-reset, it runs a script immediately after rebooting. If the router no longer responds, use the reset button or, as a last resort, Netinstall.
