Monitoring VXLAN The esxcli network vswithch dvs vmware vxlan namespace supports commands for exploring VXLAN configuration details. For a more detailed example of this functionality, see the VMware vSphere blog post about the topic. 1 List all available VXLAN vNetwork Distributed Switches. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan list 2 View the VXLAN statistics level. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan config stats get 3 Change the statistics level, for example, from 0 to 1. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan config stats set --level 1 You can decide to filter statistics as follows: ■ For a vNetwork Distributed Switch, localized to an ESXi host ■ For a VTEP VMkernel interface ■ For a VXLAN segment ID ■ For a vNetwork Distributed Switch port ID 4 View statistics for a specific vNetwork Distributed Switch. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan config stats list --vds-name Cluster01-VXLAN-VDS 5 View statistics for a VXLAN segment ID. ■ List the available segment IDs esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan network list -vds-name Cluster01-VXLAN-VDS ■ Run the following command to view the network statistics for a particular segment ID esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan network stats list --vds-name Cluster01-VXLAN-VDS --vxlan-id 5000 ■ Retrieve natwork mappin if some virtual machine communication is occurring. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan network mapping list --vds-name Cluster01-VXLAN-VDS --vxlan-id 5000 6 View VXLAN statistics for a VDS Port ID. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan network port list --vds-name Cluster01-VXLAN-VDS --vxlan-id 5000 7 View the network statistics for a specific VDS Port ID. esxcli network vswitch dvs vmware vxlan network port list --vds-name Cluster01-VXLAN-VDS --vxlan-id 5000 vdsport-is 968
