roll back mgmt-interface-swap=enable

add this to the user data on my vm instance after it was already configured.
Not the brightest choice..

The PA VM has become unreachable as a result and I'm trying to figure out how to roll this back. Is that possible?
Can't find any documentation on rolling back this.

Tried

removed the user-data and mgmt-interface-swap=disable. Unsuccessfully..

Recommendations to rollback this change.

You could potentially run the following command but it sounds like you have lost access entirely. Interface Swap just moves the management to ETH1 of the instance which may have a different security group that is blocking access. You may want to try adding a bastion host and access the firewall from within the VPC to circumvent any routing to a NatGW that is preventing inbound due to the different subnet.

set system setting mgmt-interface-swap enable no
