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. On the homepage, choose Networking > Virtual Private Network.
  4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Virtual Private Network > Enterprise – VPN Gateways.
  5. On the VPN Gateways page, locate the row that contains the target VPN gateway and click Unbind EIP in the Operation column.
    • 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. In the displayed dialog box, click Yes.

    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.
