Attaching ports

This section explains the procedure for attaching ports created in advance in the business service network to virtual servers. Refer to Creating a port for the procedure for creating ports.

Perform the necessary settings indicated below.

$SERVER_ID=<ID of the virtual server to attach the port to>

$PORT_ID=<Port ID of the business service network to attach to the virtual server>

Execute the API.

$ curl -Ss $COMPUTE/v2/$PROJECT_ID/servers/$SERVER_ID/os-interface -X POST \
            -H "X-Auth-Token: $OS_AUTH_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
            -d '{ "interfaceAttachment": {"port_id": "'$PORT_ID'" }}' | jq .

The following response will be returned.

{
  "interfaceAttachment": {
    "mac_addr": "<MAC address of the interface for the business service network>",
    "net_id": "<Network ID>",
    "port_id": "<Network Port ID for the business service network to attach to the virtual server>",
    "fixed_ips": [
      {
        "ip_address": "<IP address of the port of the business service network>",
        "subnet_id": "<Subnet ID of the business service network>"
      }
    ],
    "port_state": "DOWN"
  }
}

Execute the following API command to confirm that the interface of the virtual server and the port have been attached.

$ SERVER_ID=<ID of the virtual server the port was attached to>

$ curl -Ss $COMPUTE/v2/$PROJECT_ID/servers/$SERVER_ID/os-interface -X GET \
            -H "X-Auth-Token: $OS_AUTH_TOKEN" | jq .

If the following response is returned, attaching is complete.

{
  "interfaceAttachments": [
    {
      "mac_addr": "<MAC address of the interface of the business service network>",
      "net_id": "<Network ID>",
      "port_id": "<Port ID of the business service network attached to the virtual server>",
      "fixed_ips": [
        {
          "ip_address": "<IP address of the port of the business service network>",
          "subnet_id": "<Subnet ID of the business service network>"
        }
      ],
      "port_state": "ACTIVE"
    },
    {
      "mac_addr": "<MAC address of the interface>",
      "net_id": "<Network ID>",
      "port_id": "<Port ID of the management network attached to the virtual server>",
      "fixed_ips": [
        {
          "ip_address": "<IP address of the port of the business service network>;",
          "subnet_id": "<Subnet ID of the management network>"
        }
      ],
      "port_state": "ACTIVE"
    }
  ]
}
