Deleting a broadcast domain

If you no longer need a broadcast domain, you can delete it. This moves the ports associated with that broadcast domain to the Default IPspace.

Before you begin

There must be no subnets, network interfaces, or SVMs associated with the broadcast domain you want to delete.

About this task

  • The system-created Cluster broadcast domain cannot be deleted.

  • All failover groups related to the broadcast domain are removed when you delete the broadcast domain.

Delete a broadcast domain: network port broadcast-domain delete -broadcast-domain broadcast_domain_name [-ipspace ipspace_name]

Example

The following command deletes broadcast domain bcast1 in IPspace ipspace1:

cluster-1::> network port broadcast-domain delete -broadcast-domain bcast1 -ipspace ipspace1
