To disconnect a data center group or network fault domain from the Internet, you can remove its egress point.

Prerequisites

  • This operation requires the System Administrator role or a role with the VDC Group: Configure VDC Group right published to the organization.

  • If you want to remove an active egress point that is paired with a stand-by egress point, you must swap the egress points or remove the stand-by egress point.

Procedure

  1. In the top navigation bar, click Networking and then click the Data Center Groups tab.
    The list of data center groups appears.
  2. Click the target data center group.
    The Network Topology view for this data center group opens. The diagram of the current network topology displays the participating VDCs with their network fault domains, the egress points, if configured, and the traffic routes.
  3. If you are removing an egress point from a network fault domain configuration, on the network topology diagram, select the network fault domain of the target egress point.
    Network fault domains are represented with solid lines and domain names at the bottom of the diagram.
    The selected network fault domain is marked in blue.
  4. In the upper right corner of the card of the target egress point, click the three dots, and click Delete.
  5. To confirm, click OK.

Results

BGP routes are removed from the edge gateway representing the egress point if it is not in use by other universal routers.

The egress point is removed from the network topology diagram.
