Delete a Link

You can delete a link from the topology when the link is decommissioned from the network. Since the links are decommissioned, deleting the links has no effect on the existing network. Pathfinder clears the application data associated with the deleted link (such as topology display and license count).

You can delete a link only if:

  1. The link’s operational status is Down. Pathfinder changes the operational status to Down when Toposerver receives the first LINK WITHDRAW message from BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP).

  2. The link does not have active IS-IS or OSPF adjacencies. Pathfinder drops IS-IS and OSPF adjacencies when Toposerver receives the second LINK WITHDRAW message from BMP.

To delete a link from the topology:

  1. Click Network > Topology.

    The Topology page appears.

  2. On the Link tab, select the link that you want to delete.
  3. Click the delete (trash can) icon.

    A confirmation message appears.

  4. Click Yes.

    The link is deleted from the topology map and is removed from the network information table.
