Removing connections between devices

You can manually remove connections between devices in the network topology.

1. Click the Incident icon and select Network Availability > Network Hop View.
2. Ensure the displayed topology map contains the connection that you want to delete.
3. In the Network Hop View, select the connection to remove. Then right-click to display the context menu and click Topology Management > Remove Connection from the context menu.
   The header at the top of the context menu displays the connection that is selected for removal.

   Note: You can only remove one connection, or one link in a multilink connection, at a time.

   • If the selected connection is made up of multiple links, then you must first click the link you want to remove, and then from the submenu that is displayed, click Topology Management > Remove Connection.
   • If you selected two or more different connections, then only the first connection that you selected is presented for removal.
   The Confirm Connection Removal window opens.
4. Complete the Device Selection window as follows.

   Reason

   Specify a reason for removing these devices from the domain.

5. Click Confirm.
   The Success window is displayed confirming that the connection has been removed.
