To decommission a Check Point firewall how do I set it back to factory default/erase the configuration?

Depending on the unit:

1) you can do it via LCD panel on the appliance

2) Or from GAIA > maintenance > factory default

The Check Point Appliance contains a default factory image.
...

Connect to the appliance with a console connection (use the serial console connection on the back panel of the appliance).
Boot the appliance and press CTRL+C. ...
Enter 4 to select Restore to Factory Defaults (local).
