Revert tc back to original that existed before the tc command?

Question

I did this which worked great to limit my host's bandwidth. But now I want to return to full speed. Sadly my command is not right.

ga@ga-EX58-UD4P:~$ sudo tc qdisc add dev eth1 ingress
[sudo] password for ga: 
ga@ga-EX58-UD4P:~$ sudo tc filter add dev eth1 root protocol ip u32 match u32 0 0 police rate 1mbit burst 10k flowid :1

ga@ga-EX58-UD4P:~$ sudo tc qdisc del dev eth1 root
[sudo] password for ga: 
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory

What is the right command? Thanks so much

Both of them? And in reverse order of which you ran them the first time to add them. — Michael Hampton, Nov 03 '18 at 16:17
Well I already tried the 1st one alone, verbatim except add changed to del. It worked, seemingly. — Geoffrey Anderson, Nov 03 '18 at 16:20

As suggested by Michael Hampton:

sudo tc qdisc del dev eth1 ingress

It seemed to work. The speed came back. Not sure if I need to run 2 commands though to restore fully in some way as MH recommended.
