Deleting an Internet Gateway
Delete an internet gateway from a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) in Networking.
Prerequisite: Before you delete an internet gateway, delete all route rules in the VCN that specify the gateway as the target. Deleting those rules stops the routing in the VCN to the gateway. If a route rule refers to the gateway, it can't be deleted until the reference is removed.
See Listing VCN Route Tables and Updating a VCN Route Table's Rules for more about finding and updating route rules that refer to a gateway.
- Open the navigation menu , select Networking, and then select Virtual cloud networks.
- Select the name of the VCN that you're interested in.
- Under Resources, select Internet Gateway.
-
Select the Actions menu (
) for the internet gateway, and then select Terminate.
- Confirm when prompted.
