How do you retrieve running config on a vSwitch?

[Sudarshan_Nanda]

Hello Magreth,

I need to know what all API calls does https://github.com/homework/openvswitch/blob/master/ovsdb/ovsdb-server.c

ovsdb-server.c uses for various open vswitch operations?

Actually,I was going through the code,but i found in internet that it uses post man API Calls for network service and few other API calls for CRUD Operations....but the search leads to header files only....can you guide me what all API calls does it uses?

Hi Sudarshan,

Can you please be a little clear with what kind of help you need? Personally, I haven't looked in the OVSDB server/manager itself, but I used it along the way when retrieving devices configuration from OVSDB.

Hello,

I am having a study project of OVSDB Server.c file in Github.

Can you please guide me how to look at the API Calls used in the OVSDB Server?

Hi,

I will suggest that you use postman API and add the postman collections from here, the "GET all node" collection will give you the node. Note that you will need to supply the URL with controller IP and port, and have done the number 1 item as described by Ravi above.

Also note that OVSDB works with MD-SAL as well and the correct command to retrieve the database is "printcache " node in the form of "OVS|192.168.1.1:4432"

Hope this help.
