Deleting an online device removes the information about the device from the EPICenter database; the
device can no longer be monitored and managed from the EPICenter application. If the device is an
Extreme switch, deleting it removes any SmartTraps rules, both from the database and the switch
change table. It also removes all information about VLANs, QoS Policy, and Virtual Chassis connections
associated with this switch from the EPICenter database.
