Locate the public SSL certificates used for your published applications.
If you are using Windows Network Load Balancing (NLB), open the Network Load Balancing Manager and delete the host from the cluster. If you use a dedicated hardware load balancer, permanently delete the node from the pool/VIP configuration. 2. Verify Remaining Node Synchronization
Secure local administrator rights on the WAP server you are removing, as well as administrative access to the primary AD FS server. Step 1: Remove the Server from the Load Balancer remove web application proxy server from cluster
Once you confirm 24–48 hours of error-free operation, you can safely delete the virtual machine or repurpose the physical hardware from your environment. To help tailor any further cleanup steps, tell me:

Managing a high-availability environment often requires scaling back or replacing aging infrastructure. When you need to , simply turning off the machine isn't enough; the configuration will still exist in the AD FS database, leading to management errors and synchronization issues.
Permanently delete the removed server's IP address from your load balancer pools or Windows NLB cluster configuration. Leaving it in place can cause intermittent connection errors if the load balancer attempts health checks on a dead node.
