How to Delete an IP Tunnel

1. Unplumb the IP interface that is configured over the tunnel depending on the type of interface.

   # ipadm delete-ip tunnel-link

   ---

   Note -  To successfully delete a tunnel, no existing IP interface can be plumbed on the tunnel.

2. Delete the IP tunnel.

   # dladm delete-iptun tunnel-link

   The only option for this command is –t, which causes the tunnel to be deleted temporarily. When you reboot the system, the tunnel is restored.
