Ports in OpenStack can be deleted with the openstack port delete
command. OpenStack automatically deletes ports it creates, such as when a server or floating IP is created, but may not delete ports created by users and associated with instances at a later time.
Deleting ports associated with active instances may cause the instance to crash or can cause unexpected behavior in the instance.
When deleting a port, ensure that you are authenticated as an administrator or are the owner of the port. You will need the following details:
Port name or ID
For our example, the following will be used:
Port name: COOKBOOK_TEST_PORT_1
With the OpenStack client installed on our system, we are now able to delete a port with the following command:
openstack port delete COOKBOOK_TEST_PORT_1
No output is returned.
