Listing Virtual Networks

Sometimes, you may wish to list the Virtual Networks existing on the Parallels server. To do this, you can use either the vznetcfg or prlsrvctl utility.

Listing Virtual Networks With vznetcfg

To list the Virtual Networks on your server using the vznetcfg utility, execute the following command:

# vznetcfg net list

Network ID Status Master Interface Slave Interfaces

Shared active vnic0

Host-Only active vnic1

Bridged active eth0

vznetwork1 active vnic2

In the example above, 4 Virtual Networks - vznetwork1 and 3 default Virtual Networks - exist on the Parallels server. The information on these Virtual Networks is presented in the table having the following columns:

`Column Name`	`Description`
`Network ID`	The ID assigned to the Virtual Network.
`Status`	Indicates the status of the Virtual Network. It can be one of the following: `active` : the Virtual Network is up and running. `configured` : the information on the Virtual Network is present in the `/etc/vz/vznet.conf` file on the server, but the bridge to which the Virtual Network is bound is down or absent from the server. Note: Detailed information on the `vznet.conf` file is given in the Parallels Command Line Reference Guide .
`Master Interface`	Displays the adapter on the server connected to the Virtual Network, if any.
`Slave Interfaces`	Lists the adapters in virtual machines and Containers joined to the Virtual Network, if any.

Listing Virtual Networks With prlsrvctl

You can also use the prlsrvctl utility to list the Virtual Networks existing on your server. To do this, run the following command:

# prlsrvctl net list

Network ID Type Bound To

Shared shared vnic0

Host-Only host-only vnic1

Bridged bridged eth0

vznetwork1 host-only vnic2

This utility displays the following information on Virtual Networks:

Column Name	Description
`Network ID`	The name assigned to the Virtual Network.
`Type`	The networking mode set for the Virtual Network.
`Bound To`	The adapter on the Parallels server connected to the Virtual Networks, if any.
