Delete Internet Access with Fabric

If you ordered Equinix Internet Access with Equinix Fabric, you can use the Customer portal or APIs to cancel your Internet Access service.

You might want to delete your Internet Access service for these reasons:

Deleting the service also frees up the network and IP address capacity for reuse by other services.

Prerequisites
