network segment¶

A network segment is an isolated Layer 2 segment within a network. A network may contain multiple network segments. Depending on the network configuration, Layer 2 connectivity between network segments within a network may not be guaranteed.

Network v2

network segment create¶

Create new network segment

openstack network segment create
    [--extra-property type=<property_type>,name=<property_name>,value=<property_value>]
    [--description <description>]
    [--physical-network <physical-network>]
    [--segment <segment>]
    --network <network>
    --network-type <network-type>
    <name>

--extra-property type=<property_type>,name=<property_name>,value=<property_value>¶: Additional parameters can be passed using this property. Default type of the extra property is string (‘str’), but other types can be used as well. Available types are: ‘dict’, ‘list’, ‘str’, ‘bool’, ‘int’. In case of ‘list’ type, ‘value’ can be semicolon-separated list of values. For ‘dict’ value is semicolon-separated list of the key:value pairs.

--description <description>¶: Network segment description

--physical-network <physical-network>¶: Physical network name of this network segment

--segment <segment>¶: Segment identifier for this network segment which is based on the network type, VLAN ID for vlan network type and tunnel ID for geneve, gre and vxlan network types

--network <network>¶: Network this network segment belongs to (name or ID)

--network-type <network-type>¶: Network type of this network segment (flat, geneve, gre, local, vlan or vxlan)

name¶: New network segment name

network segment delete¶

Delete network segment(s)

openstack network segment delete
    <network-segment>
    [<network-segment> ...]

network-segment¶: Network segment(s) to delete (name or ID)

network segment list¶

List network segments

openstack network segment list
    [--sort-column SORT_COLUMN]
    [--sort-ascending | --sort-descending]
    [--long]
    [--network <network>]
    [--limit <limit>]
    [--marker <marker>]
    [--max-items <max-items>]

--sort-column SORT_COLUMN¶: specify the column(s) to sort the data (columns specified first have a priority, non-existing columns are ignored), can be repeated

--sort-ascending¶: sort the column(s) in ascending order

--sort-descending¶: sort the column(s) in descending order

--long¶: List additional fields in output

--network <network>¶: List only network segments associated with the specified network (name or ID)

--limit <limit>¶: The maximum number of entries to return per page. If the value exceeds the server-defined maximum, then the server-defined value will be used. Note that this controls the page size, not the total number of entries returned. Use –max-items to limit the total number of entries returned.

--marker <marker>¶: The first position in the collection to return results from. This should be a value that was returned in a previous request.

--max-items <max-items>¶: The maximum number of entries to return in total, paging through multiple requests if needed. Use –limit to control the page size.

network segment set¶

Set network segment properties

openstack network segment set
    [--extra-property type=<property_type>,name=<property_name>,value=<property_value>]
    [--description <description>]
    [--name <name>]
    <network-segment>

--extra-property type=<property_type>,name=<property_name>,value=<property_value>¶: Additional parameters can be passed using this property. Default type of the extra property is string (‘str’), but other types can be used as well. Available types are: ‘dict’, ‘list’, ‘str’, ‘bool’, ‘int’. In case of ‘list’ type, ‘value’ can be semicolon-separated list of values. For ‘dict’ value is semicolon-separated list of the key:value pairs.

--description <description>¶: Set network segment description

--name <name>¶: Set network segment name

network-segment¶: Network segment to modify (name or ID)

network segment show¶

Display network segment details

openstack network segment show <network-segment>

network-segment¶: Network segment to display (name or ID)
