Good day all,
we have some interface & zone that are not in use.
What is the best method to delete these & also checking on if it affects anything else.

You can see what references there are to any given interface/zone in the GUI at Network -> Interfaces. You may have to add the Ref column.
Additionally, you can check on CLI where it is used, say interface name "port1":
# show | grep por1 -f

I suggest to just disable any unused physical interfaces rather then deleting them. You never know what may happen during the firmware upgrade process when expect interfaces are not found.

Additionally, nothing can be deleted if there are any references to them. A safety thing which can be a pain in the you-know-where when you're under the gun and trying to get things done in a hurry.

Hi,
I would suggest you remove any default references, shutdown then add those interfaces to virtual-switch maybe which will help you view interface tab with the active one's only.
