MX450 VLANs and Single LAN

Hi,

 

I have configured two VLANs in MX450. One VLAN is not being used and has been disabled. I would like to clean up the unused VLAN.
Is it preferable to change it to a Single VLAN or should we delete the unused VLAN entirely? Additionally, any potential consequences of changing to a Single VLAN and whether any additional configuration is required.

 

Thank you.

If it's not needed anymore, I'd also recommend to completely delete the Vlan. I don't see an advantage in switching back to "Single Vlan"-mode though. Especially when dealing with boxes as big as the MX450, chances are high that there will be a requirement for more than one Vlan sooner or later.

 

P.S.: There will be no outages for either of the options (at least from the outside point of view).
