Detaching a Network Interface
Scenarios
An ECS can have a maximum of 12 network interfaces, including a primary network interface that cannot be detached. This section describes how to detach an extension network interface.
Caution
Detaching a networking interface may cause network interruptions. Evaluate the impact in advance and exercise caution when performing this operation.
Procedure
- Log in to the management console.
- Under Computing, click Elastic Cloud Server.
- In the ECS list, click the name of the ECS from which you want to detach a network interface
The page providing details about the ECS is displayed.
- On the Network Interfaces tab, locate the target network interface and click Detach.Note
You are not allowed to detach the primary network interface (the first one displayed in the network interface list).
- In the displayed dialog box, click OK.Note
Certain ECSs do not support network interface detachment when they are running. For details, see the GUI display. To detach a network interface from such an ECS, stop the ECS first.
