ovn-detrace - convert ``ovs-appctl ofproto/trace'' output to combine OVN logical flow information.

ovn-detrace < file

[-h | --help] [-V | --version]

The ovn-detrace program reads ovs-appctl ofproto/trace output on stdin, looking for flow cookies, and expand each cookie with corresponding OVN logical flows. It expands logical flow further with the north-bound information e.g. the ACL that generated the logical flow, when relevant.


Prints a brief help message to the console.

Prints version information to the console.
The OVN Southbound DB remote to contact. If the OVN_SB_DB environment variable is set, its value is used as the default. Otherwise, the default is unix:@RUNDIR@/ovnsb_db.sock, but this default is unlikely to be useful outside of single-machine OVN test environments.
The OVN Northbound DB remote to contact. If the OVN_NB_DB environment variable is set, its value is used as the default. Otherwise, the default is unix:@RUNDIR@/ovnnb_db.sock, but this default is unlikely to be useful outside of single-machine OVN test environments.
Also decode flow information (like OVS ofport) from the flows by connecting to the OVS DB.
Connect to any cluster member, not just the leader. The option works for OVN Southbound DB and OVN Northbound DB.
The OVS DB remote to contact if --ovs is present. If the OVS_RUNDIR environment variable is set, its value is used as the default. Otherwise, the default is unix:@RUNDIR@/db.sock, but this default is unlikely to be useful outside of single-machine OVN test environments.

Specifies a PEM file containing the private key used as ovn-detrace's identity for outgoing SSL connections.

Specifies a PEM file containing a certificate that certifies the private key specified on -p or --private-key to be trustworthy. The certificate must be signed by the certificate authority (CA) that the peer in SSL connections will use to verify it.

Specifies a PEM file containing the CA certificate that ovn-detrace should use to verify certificates presented to it by SSL peers. (This may be the same certificate that SSL peers use to verify the certificate specified on -c or --certificate, or it may be a different one, depending on the PKI design in use.)
