11.1. Network Elements
The
networks collection provides information about the logical networks in a Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization environment. An API user accesses this information through the rel="networks" link obtained from the entry point URI.
The following table shows specific elements contained in a network resource representation.
| Element | Type | Description | Properties |
|---|---|---|---|
link rel="vnicprofiles" | relationship | A link to the sub-collection for VNIC profiles attached to this logical network. | |
link rel="labels" | relationship | A link to the sub-collection for labels attached to this logical network. | |
data_center id= | GUID | A reference to the data center of which this cluster is a member. | 
|
vlan id= | integer | A VLAN tag. | |
stp | Boolean: true or false | true if Spanning Tree Protocol is enabled on this network. | |
mtu | integer | Sets the maximum transmission unit for the logical network. If omitted, the logical network uses the default value. | |
status | One of operational or non_operational | The status of the network. These states are listed in network_states under capabilities. | 
|
usages | complex | Defines a set of usage elements for the network. Users can define networks as VM networks at this level. |
