Deleting an OSPF area

You can delete an OSPF area in a CPE template or on a device. When you delete an OSPF area in a CPE template, the OSPF area is automatically deleted on all devices that are using the template.

Deleted OSPF areas cannot be restored.

To delete an OSPF area:

1. Delete an OSPF area in one of the following ways:
   • If you want to delete an OSPF area in a CPE template, go to the SD-WAN → CPE templates menu section, click the template and in the displayed settings area, select the OSPF → OSPF areas tab.
   • If you want to delete an OSPF area on a CPE device, go to the SD-WAN → CPE menu section, click the device, and in the displayed settings area, select the OSPF → OSPF areas tab and select the Override check box.

   A table of OSPF areas is displayed.

2. Click Delete next to the OSPF area that you want to delete.
3. In the confirmation window, click Delete.

   The OSPF area is deleted and is no longer displayed in the table.

4. In the upper part of the settings area, click Save to save the settings of the CPE template or device.
