Syntax
crypto key zeroize rsa

Usage
Note that this command has the same effect as using the
delete

certificates.

certificate signing request for an existing trustpoint. To remove a server certificate
so that the key may be deleted, use the
no crypto pki enroll
command to
de-enroll the server.

To delete an RSA key named "example-server-key", use the following command:
