Chapter 5. Reviewing OpenStack Networking router ports
Virtual routers in OpenStack Networking use ports to interconnect with subnets. You can review the state of these ports to determine whether they connect as expected.
5.1. Viewing current port status
Complete the following steps to lists all of the ports that attach to a particular router and to retrieve the current state of a port (DOWN or ACTIVE):
To view all the ports that attach to the router named r1, run the following command:
# neutron router-port-list r1
Example result:

Include the port ID of the port that you want to view. The result includes the port status, indicated in the following example as having an
