Terminating a VPN

You can terminate unused VPCs to reduce operating costs. However, since terminating the service can immediately stop operating services, you must fully consider the impact of service interruption before proceeding with termination.

Caution
  • You cannot terminate if there are resources connected to the VPN, such as VPN Tunnels.
  • You cannot terminate if the VPN service status is Creating or Editing.

To terminate a VPN, follow these steps:

  1. Click the All Services > Networking > VPN menu. You will be redirected to the VPN Service Home page.
  2. On the Service Home page, click the VPN menu. You will be redirected to the VPN List page.
  3. On the VPN List page, select the resource to terminate. You will be redirected to the VPN Detail page.
  4. On the VPN Detail page, click the Service Termination button.
  5. After termination is complete, verify that the resource has been terminated on the VPN List page.
