Permanently deletes a ByteMatchSet. You can't delete a ByteMatchSet if it's still used in any Rules or if it still includes any ByteMatchTuple objects (any filters).

If you just want to remove a ByteMatchSet from a Rule , use UpdateRule.

To permanently delete a ByteMatchSet , perform the following steps:

• Update the ByteMatchSet to remove filters, if any. For more information, see UpdateByteMatchSet.
• Use GetChangeToken to get the change token that you provide in the ChangeToken parameter of a DeleteByteMatchSet request.
• Submit a DeleteByteMatchSet request.
