I do 'no ip nat pool mypool' and get 'cannot destroy' message

[news2010a]

I am trying to remove a NAT entry;

I do 'no ip nat pool mypool 195.1.1.1 195.1.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0'

then the IOS returns:

%Pool globalpool in use, cannot destroy

Can you clarify how I can handle this ? IOS 12.3, C2610.

Marlon,

The reason you are unable to delete the pool is due NAT taking place at the moment.

You need to perform the following commands real quick. If I were you, I copy and paste as a script.

#clear ip nat translation *

#config terminal

(config)#no ip nat pool mypool 195.1.1.1 195.1.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0

Hi,

There is a document on CCO that describes how to get around precisely this situation:

Hii,

For this to be done properly, clear the translations and then remove the statement.

If still its not happening then remove the internal network physical connection from the router and do it.or you can disable nat on the interfaces,clear the tables and then do it.

Pls rate the post.

This forum is amazing. Thanks.

you can also do it by just issuing command on interface configuration mode "shutdown"

and then you can disable the NAT on the interface...

rate this post if it helps

ip nat pool globalpool 195.1.1.1 195.1.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0

ip nat inside source list 1 pool globalpool

under this your cisco command,

just do "no ip nat inside source list 1 pool globalpool" first,

and, "no ip nat pool globalpool 195.1.1.1 195.1.1.3 netmask 255.255.255.0" later.

It is quite, Easy? right?

try to dislink the pool with the ACL:

no ip nat inside source ( your ACL list ) pool mypool

then distroy your pool
