Deleting a route
As we have already mentioned, route requirements may change over time. In some cases, rules are no longer applicable and we must remove them. In such cases, changing the route will not complete the task and we will need to remove the route completely. This task may be completed by deleting the route.
Getting ready
Before you start, open the browser and go to the Azure portal via https://portal.azure.com.
How to do it...
In order to delete a route, we must do the following:
- In the Azure portal, locate the Route table link.
- Under Settings, select Routes and then select the route you want to delete:
