Hi Joacim, To expand on what Salvatore said, nova supports an extension called 'os-virtual-interfaces' that exposes the VIF identifiers for each server. You can see the following commit to a branch of python-novaclient for an example of how it is use: https://github.com/danwent/python-novaclient/commit/691ce77a20de01c689e00c30e181d98febb39d01. Essentially, you do a GET on /servers/<server-id>/os-virtual-interfaces Dan > Kind regards, > > Joacim > > > > -- > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~netstack > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~netstack > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > > -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dan Wendlandt Sr. Product Manager Nicira Networks: www.nicira.com cell: 650-906-2650 twitter: danwendlant ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
