/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --peer : List all the enterprises and edges

Description: This command is used to show the list of enterprises (customers) as the number of active VCEs that establish overlay with this particular VCG

Usage:

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --peer

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --list 3 : List the connected VCE’s

Description: This command is used to show the connected Edges to the VCG and their tunnel IP’s.

Usage:

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --list 3

Name                                  Enterprise                             Logical ID   VC Private IP

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --vrf : Check VRF configuration

Description: This command is used to display the configured vrf’s on the Gateway from the VCO’s customer BGP configuration. The “c_tag” value is the Vlan tag for hand off traffic and it should match the PE’s interface configuration.

Usage:

 

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --vrf

{

 "vrf_dump": [

   {

     "c_tag": 102,

     "enteprise_id": "14bd4162-9940-42e2-b571-496747c7ec78",

     "s_tag": 0,

     "vlan_vrf_mode": "802.1Q"

   }

 ]

}

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --path : List all the overlay tunnels

Description: This command is used to show all the overlay tunnels from all the VCEs that are terminated at this particular VCG. Note the “peer_name” field identifies the VCE the overlay belongs to and the “gateway” field shows the interface IP address of the remote VCE.

Usage:

/opt/vc/bin/debug.py --path
