For REMX2K-X8:

content_copy zoom_out_map
crypto-officer@host> request system zeroize
System Zeroization : Erase all data, including configuration and log files ? 
[yes,no] (no) yes 

re0: 

To initiate the zeroization process, type yes at the prompt:
```

The entire operation can take considerable time depending on the size of the media, but all critical security parameters (CSPs) are removed within a few seconds. The physical environment must remain secure until the zeroization process is complete.
