Deleting a router network interface in MediaConnect
You can delete router network interfaces that are no longer needed for your workflow. This helps you to maintain a clean network configuration and reduce unused resources.
Important
After you delete a network interface, you can't recover it. You'll need to create a new one if you need similar functionality later.
Prerequisites
Before you begin:
-
Make sure no router I/Os are currently using the router network interface you want to delete.
-
Consider documenting the router network interface's configuration in case you need to recreate it later.
Procedure

-
Open the MediaConnect console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/mediaconnect/
. -
In the navigation pane, choose Router network interfaces.
-
Choose the name of the router network interface that you want to delete.
-
Choose Delete.
-
To confirm, choose Delete router network interface.
Note
The deleted interface might still appear in your list for about an hour, but it won't be functional.
Next steps
