Deleting a network policy

As a user with the admin role, you can delete a network policy from a namespace.

Deleting a network policy

You can delete a network policy in a namespace.

Prerequisites

• Your cluster uses a cluster network provider that supports NetworkPolicy objects, such as the OVN-Kubernetes network provider or the OpenShift SDN network provider with mode: NetworkPolicy set. This mode is the default for OpenShift SDN.

• You installed the OpenShift CLI (oc).

• You are logged in to the cluster with a user with admin privileges.

• You are working in the namespace where the network policy exists.

Procedure

• To delete a NetworkPolicy object, enter the following command:

  $ oc delete networkpolicy <policy_name> -n <namespace>

  where:

  <policy_name>

  Specifies the name of the network policy.

  <namespace>

  Optional: Specifies the namespace if the object is defined in a different namespace than the current namespace.

  Example output

  networkpolicy.networking.k8s.io/allow-same-namespace deleted
