Remove a IP sub pool from BFC using the CLI

Follow these steps:

  1. login in the cli and run command
    ->n
    
  2. find the line. we are looking for the number of the driver
    1176) ==> 'drivers/networking.components.ip_reservation_pool'(16)
    ->1176
    ->call getPools
    [1440,1433,1414]
    

    Three parent pools are returned to drill into one type one of the numbers

    ->1433
    ->props
    
  3. verify that this is the pool you are interested in if not then go back to the top pool
    ->b
    

    try again select a different pool

  4. if this the right pool let us look at the subpools
    -> call getSubPools
    [1435,1437,1438,1439]
    
  5. verify which subpool you want to delete using above technique
  6. Then delete the sub pool from the parent pool
    ->call deleteSubPool[1439]
    

    If you get an error about allocated IPs in the range then drill into the sub pool

    ->1439
    

    now we are in the targeted subpool

    ->call deallocateAll
    
  7. If you know which ip is blocking you can use a more targeted approach
    signature(deallocateIP/1)For one IP
    signature(deallocateIP/2)For a range of IPs
    signature(deallocateAll/0)Everything
    return to the parent pool and delete again
    ->b
    ->call deleteSubPool[1439]
