- Creating a network
Deleting a network in OpenStack is as easy as invoking the openstack network delete command. Neutron will delete any automatically-created ports associated with the network, like the ones created by/for the DHCP or router namespaces, and will return any automatically-assigned segmentation IDs to the respective pool for allocation to another network.
When deleting a network in OpenStack, ensure that all associated user-created ports have been deleted. This may require deleting instances, detaching and deleting ports from instances, or detaching and deleting ports from routers. When deleting a network, the following information will be necessary:
- Network name or ID
With the OpenStack client installed on our system, we are able now to delete a network with the following command:
openstack network delete COOKBOOK_TENANT_NETWORK_3
No output is returned.
When invoked, the openstack network delete command will instruct Neutron to delete the specified network and any associated subnet(s), as long as all user-managed ports have been deleted. In a reference architecture, the layer 2 agents are responsible for deleting the respective virtual bridges and interfaces configured on the hosts, and all records of the network are purged from the OpenStack database.
