Hi, With cleanup=false all the rules programmed will be cleaned and reapplied on the VR whereas with cleanup=true VR will be destroyed and recreated with all the rules.
If there is only one VR and it is destroyed with VMs running in that network, guest vms will not get any services provided by that network.

If you want to destroy and recreate the single router available in the network, use the restartNetwork API with the cleanup=true parameter." Would it be possible for someone to explain the difference between cleanup=false and cleanup=true in more detail? Apologies if this exists somewhere but I can't seem to find a definitive answer. If there is only one router and this router is destroyed, what happens to instances which are running? I'm finding that there resolve.conf continues to point to the IP address of the old router and so their dns lookups fail. Must they be restarted? This is when using cloudstack 4.3 Many thanks for any help Cheers!
