Disable NIC via CLI

[Ivanildo_GalvÃ_]

Hello friends, what command I use to disable a NIC for an ESXi host via console CLI?

Thanks !

[Virtualinfra]

Putty to esxi host or use DCLI on esxi host

use command esxcfg-vswitch

For example you have vswitch0 with vmnic0 and vmnic1, you want to disable or unlink vmnic1 use the below command.

Syntax

esxcfg-vswitch -U vmnic1 vSwitch0

You want to disable a NIC or remove it from the vSwitch?

For the second the previous post give the answer.

For the first, it is a little more complicated.
