Unbinding an EIP from a VPN Gateway

Scenario

After a VPN gateway is created, you can unbind an EIP from it.

Notes and Constraints

An EIP that is in use by a VPN connection cannot be unbound from a VPN gateway.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner and select the desired region and project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner, and choose Networking > Virtual Private Network.
  4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Virtual Private Network > Enterprise – VPN Gateways.
  5. On the S2C VPN Gateways page, click Unbind EIP or choose More > Unbind EIP in the Operation column of the target VPN gateway.
    • If the VPN gateway uses the active-active mode, the active EIP and active EIP 2 can be unbound from the VPN gateway.
    • If the VPN gateway uses the active/standby mode, the active EIP and standby EIP can be unbound from the VPN gateway.
  6. Click OK.
    • An EIP will continue to be billed after being unbound from a VPN gateway. If you no longer need an EIP, you are advised to release it.
    • The impact of shared bandwidth freezing on EIPs is subject to the EIP documentation. For details, see Why My EIPs Are Frozen? How Do I Unfreeze My EIPs?.
