How to get UUID of a VXLAN VNI ?

Hi experts,

I'm using NSX 6.2.3 to interconnect with Juniper MX routers which acts as VXLAN hardware gateway.

From NSX manager, I can get UUID of logical-switch which connect with port of MX routers:

nsx01> show logical-switch list all

NAME                 UUID                                 VNI        Trans Zone Name      Trans Zone ID      

ls01                 46651a63-8c2c-47fa-924c-0c21f43a934a 6000       tz01                 vdnscope-7          

But NSX controller tells MX routers the UUID as follows:

MX240-a-re0# run show ovsdb interface

Interface              VLAN ID         Bridge-domain    

evpn                

ge-1/0/6.0             100             a8c6dd98-2010-3ce8-b01c-e1aef8a2d40a    

irb.1                  0               a8c6dd98-2010-3ce8-b01c-e1aef8a2d40a

If I use UUID get from NSX manager, then VXLAN doesn't work.

If I use UUID that NSX controller tells MX router, everything works fine.

So I want to know where can I get the UUID from NSX manager or NSX controller?

Which command can do that?

thanks in advance,

Mike

Tested again, NSX manager shows a UUID for logical-switch but gives another UUID to MX router.

I've tested all the RESTful API, and all of them can't get the real UUID.

Maybe this should be enhanced in NSX, could engineers from vmware check this issue please?

Thanks,
