Deleting a Virtual Port

You can delete a virtual port from its existing Group by using the rmvp command. When you
remove a virtual port, the port is moved to the default switch Group, Group #1, and all port
parameters are reset to defaults except for the port name. For example, if you configured a
port with a special flood limit and customized translation settings and you then removed the
port, you would lose those port settings.
To remove a port, enter the rmvp command, followed by the Group number where the port
currently resides and the physical slot and port number for the port:
rmvp <Group number> <Module Slot>/<Port Number>
For example, to delete Port 7 on the module in Slot 4, and the Port currently resides in Group
6, you would enter:
rmvp 6 4/7
A prompt displays requesting that you confirm the deletion:
Local port 7 (Virtual po...) is attached to this slot/interface - remove? (n):
Enter a y and press <Enter> to remove the port. Another message displays confirming the
deletion:
BRIDGE port on 4/7 moved to GROUP 1.
If the port you specified did not exist in the Group you specified in the rmvp command, then
a message similar to the following would display:
Specified port(s) not found on GROUP 6.
