Creating topology using NSX & vRealize

[afzi148]

Hi,

I am using NSX and vRealize. I want to show topology to user. Is there any API which can tell us that which component is connected to which component e.g. which VM is connected to which logical switch and that logical switch is connected to which logical router in the tenant.

Are you asking about showing the topology of a blueprint? As in what's on the design canvas?

[afzi148]

No.

I want to show complete topology of the network of a tenant just like OpenStack Horizon.

[daphnissov]

No, there's no single API for that. To do so would be extremely complex.

Thanks for your reply.

I am done till logical router and switches. Now I only want to know which VM is connected to which logical switch. Is there any NSX API which can give us that information.

I want to extract data like attached picture using API.
