List VNI Pools

Returns information about the default and configured virtual
network identifier (VNI) pools for use when building logical network
segments. Each virtual network has a unique ID called a VNI. Instead
of creating a new VNI each time you need a new logical switch, you
can instead allocate a VNI from a VNI pool. VNI pools are sometimes
called segment ID pools. Each VNI pool has a range of usable VNIs. By
default, there is one pool with two ranges [5000, 65535] and [65536,
75000]. To create multiple smaller pools, specify a smaller range for
each pool such as 75001-75100 and 75101-75200. The VNI range determines
the maximum number of logical switches that can be created in each
network segment.
