Deleting accidentially created interfaces

If making a typo using the modify /net tmsh command like this:

 

modify /net interface 1/1.1 nedia 10000SR-FD

 

It creates a new interface called "nedia" with status "pend". How does one delete this interface?

      I've rebooted the entire Viprion chassis multiple times and still can't get rid of it.

  • This relates to VE but as this is VIPRION perhaps it might help;

     

    [tmsh] stop sys services all

     

    rm /var/db/mcpd*

     

    touch /service/mcpd/forceload

     

    shutdown -r now

     

  • steven is correct. this is tracked as ID248742.

    ID248742 - CLI allows accidental creation of pending interfaces too easily
