Deleting an Address Pool

This procedure describes how to delete an address pool. You must first halt new sessions from being started and verify that no active sessions remain. The steps are similar to those described in Changing Address Attributes in the Address Pool.

To delete an address from an address pool:

  1. From configuration mode, activate maintenance mode for an address pool.
  2. Verify that all subscriber sessions have ended.

    The service mode shows Maintenance – Active Phase if all the sessions are cleared. The service mode shows Maintenance – In Phase if some sessions are active. The service mode shows Maintenance – Out Phase if maintenance mode is not configured (that is, it is in operational mode).

  3. (Optional) Terminate sessions that are using an address pool using the clear command.

    When the subscriber count is zero and all sessions have terminated, the service mode status indicates Maintenance – Active phase. In this state, you can modify pool attributes and commit changes.

  4. When the subscriber count is zero and all sessions have ended, modify address pool attributes and commit changes.
    Note:

    These modifications, if made outside of active maintenance mode, fail.

  5. Delete the address pool and commit the change.
  6. Verify that the address pool has been deleted (that is, it is not listed in the output).
