# Remove a VPN site from all VPNs

You can remove a site that has been manually added to the VPN gateway. The site is removed from all VPNs where the VPN gateway is used.

##

Note: To remove the automatic site from an NGFW Engine that acts as a VPN Gateway, disable automatic VPN site management. There must be at least one enabled site.

For more details about the product and how to configure features, click Help or press F1.

## Steps

1. Select Configuration.
2. Open the list of sites for the gateway in one of the following ways:
   - Right-click an NGFW Engine, select Edit <element type>, then browse to VPN > Sites.
   - Browse to SD-WAN > VPN Gateways, double-click the External VPN Gateway element, then click the Sites tab.
3. Right-click the site, then select Remove.
4. Save the changes in one of the following ways:
   - In the Engine Editor, click Save and Refresh.
   - In the External VPN Gateway Properties dialog box, click OK.

## Next steps

If you edited a previously configured VPN, refresh the policy on all affected gateways to transfer the changes. The configurations of external gateways might also require an update.
