Deleting an IP interface

You can delete an IP interface using the portcfg ipif command with the delete option. The

command syntax is as follows:

portcfg ipif [slot/]ge n delete ipaddr

For full details on syntax and using this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference

Manual.

NOTE

You cannot delete an IP interface if there is a tunnel or circuit configured to use it. Be sure to delete

all tunnels, circuits, and IP routes using an interface before deleting it.

Deleting an IP route

You can delete an IP route to a gateway destination IP address using the portcfg iproute command

with the delete option. The command syntax is as follows for both IPv4 and IPv6 addressing:

portcfg iproute [slot/]ge n delete dest_ipv4 netmask

portcfg iproute [slot/]ge n delete dest_ipv6/prefix_len

For full details on syntax and using this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference

Manual.

NOTE

You cannot delete an IP route if there is a tunnel, circuit, or IP interface configured to use it. Be sure

to delete all tunnels, circuits, and IP interface using an IP route before deleting the IP route.

Deleting an FCIP tunnel

When you delete an FCIP tunnel, you also delete all associated FCIP circuits. Use the portCfg

fciptunnel command with the delete option to delete FCIP tunnels. The command syntax is as

follows:

portcfg fciptunnel ve_port delete

For full details on syntax and using this command, refer to the Fabric OS Command Reference

Manual.

CAUTION

The fciptunnel delete command does not prompt you to verify your deletion. Be sure you want to

delete the tunnel before you press Enter.

NOTE

You must delete an FCIP tunnel before you can delete an IP Route that it uses and the IP interface

that uses the route.
