Disassociating an EIP from an Instance or a Network Interface
You can disassociate an External address IP (EIP) from an instance or a network interface it is associated with.
To disassociate an EIP from a NAT gateway, you need to delete the NAT gateway. For more information, see Deleting a NAT Gateway.
After you disassociate it, the EIP is still allocated to your account and can be associated again. If you do not need the EIP anymore, you can release it from your account. For more information, see Releasing an EIP from Your Account.
