Get Properties of VxLAN
-
Hi,
I'm not sure to get it, can you be more specific?
-
When I create a new Private Network, I can choose Encapsulation, Encrypted (or not), MTU etc.
Once the Network is created, it does not show if the Network is Encrypted or not.
Is there any way to know this from CLI ? Or any other way ?

question for @BenjiReis

@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 networkother_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
andxe network-param-get uuid=<your network uuid> param-name=other-config param-key=xo:sdn-controller:encrypted
Or should give everything you need!
Regards

Thank you so much!
PS: Btw, there is a slight typo in your post. Its
other-config
instead ofother_config

@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:
-
Yup. I was looking at seeing other properties also (specifically encryption)
-
@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?
-
@olivierlambert Pretty easy since everything is stored in the network
other_config
field. -
Might worth it then
-
I think this would be awesome, if it's not too much work, would love to see it.
