@gb-123 Hi!

All the info are available on the host by running
ovs-vsctl show and look a the lines relevant to your bridge.
Also the following fields are available in your private network other_config:

  - `other_config`:
    - `xo:sdn-controller:encapsulation`       : encapsulation protocol used for tunneling (either `gre` or `vxlan`)
    - `xo:sdn-controller:encrypted`           : `true` if the network is encrypted
    - `xo:sdn-controller:pif-device`          : PIF device on which the tunnels are created, must be physical or VLAN or bond master and have an IP configuration
    - `xo:sdn-controller:preferred-center`    : The host UUID to prioritize as network center (or not defined)
    - `xo:sdn-controller:private-network-uuid`: UUID of the private network, same across pools
    - `xo:sdn-controller:vlan`                : VLAN of the PIFs on which the network is created
    - `xo:sdn-controller:vni`                 : VxLAN Network Identifier,

and the MTU is a field of the network as well.

So xe network-param-get uuid=<your network uuid> param-name=MTU
and xe network-param-get uuid=<your network uuid> param-name=other-config param-key=xo:sdn-controller:encrypted

Or should give everything you need!

@BenjiReis

Thank you so much!

PS: Btw, there is a slight typo in your post. Its other-config instead of other_config

BenjiReis

@gb-123 You're right! I'll edit my post.

Thx

For what it's worth, @gb-123 you can also view the MTU in both the pool and host network section:

@planedrop

Yup. I was looking at seeing other properties also (specifically encryption)

planedrop

@gb-123 Yeah I do think it'd be really nice to have all the info exposed in the GUI, not sure if there are any plans for that, but I like the idea.

+1 for this but I think the Devs are busy with other important features.

@BenjiReis how difficult to get that info exposed in XO?

BenjiReis

@olivierlambert Pretty easy since everything is stored in the network other_config field.

olivierlambert

Might worth it then

I think this would be awesome, if it's not too much work, would love to see it.
