Description

The Remove-AzureRmNetworkWatcher cmdlet removes a Network Watcher resource.

Examples

Example 1: Create and delete a Network Watcher

New-AzureRmResourceGroup -Name NetworkWatcherRG -Location westcentralus
New-AzureRmNetworkWatcher -Name NetworkWatcher_westcentralus -ResourceGroup NetworkWatcherRG -Location westcentralus
Remove-AzureRmNetworkWatcher -Name NetworkWatcher_westcentralus -ResourceGroup NetworkWatcherRG

This example creates a Network Watcher in a resource group and then immediately deletes it. Note that only one Network Watcher can be created per region per subscription. To suppress the prompt when deleting the virtual network, use the -Force flag.
