When you delete a Cross-Site Interconnect connection, Google shuts down the ports on Google's routers, and billing stops immediately. You must notify your vendor to remove the Cross-Site Interconnect connections from the unused ports on the Google demarcations.

Before you can delete a connection, you must delete all the wire groups that use the connection.
