TraceflowConfig (schema)
Traceflow configuration
TraceflowConfig mainly records what type of packets the user
wants to inject into which port. This configuration will be
cleaned up by the system after two hours of inactivity if
is_transient is true. Traceflow is not supported for VPC Admin role.
| Name | Description | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| _create_time | Timestamp of resource creation | EpochMsTimestamp | Readonly Sortable |
| _create_user | ID of the user who created this resource | string | Readonly |
| _last_modified_time | Timestamp of last modification | EpochMsTimestamp | Readonly Sortable |
| _last_modified_user | ID of the user who last modified this resource | string | Readonly |
| _links | References related to this resource The server will populate this field when returing the resource. Ignored on PUT and POST. |
array of ResourceLink | Readonly |
| _protection | Indicates protection status of this resource Protection status is one of the following: PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is not allowed to modify it. NOT_PROTECTED - the client who retrieved the entity is allowed to modify it REQUIRE_OVERRIDE - the client who retrieved the entity is a super user and can modify it, but only when providing the request header X-Allow-Overwrite=true. UNKNOWN - the _protection field could not be determined for this entity. |
string | Readonly |
| _revision | Generation of this resource config The _revision property describes the current revision of the resource. To prevent clients from overwriting each other's changes, PUT operations must include the current _revision of the resource, which clients should obtain by issuing a GET operation. If the _revision provided in a PUT request is missing or stale, the operation will be rejected. |

| _schema | Schema for this resource | string | Readonly |
| _self | Link to this resource | SelfResourceLink | Readonly |
| _system_owned | Indicates system owned resource | boolean | Readonly |
| children | Subtree for this type within policy tree Subtree for this type within policy tree containing nested elements. Note that this type is applicable to be used in Hierarchical API only. |
array of ChildPolicyConfigResource Children are not allowed for this type |
|
| connected_parent_path_as_source | PolicyPath of segment connected to container port Policy path of child segment connected to container port. Child segment connection is configured through SegmentConnectionBindingMapDto. This field should be provided only when source_id/segment_port_path is a VIF attached port on the parent segment. |

| description | Description of this resource | string | Maximum length: 1024 Sortable |
| display_name | Identifier to use when displaying entity in logs or GUI Defaults to ID if not set |
string | Maximum length: 255 Sortable |
| id | Unique identifier of this resource | string | Sortable |
| is_transient | Marker to indicate if intent is transient This field indicates if intent is transient and will be cleaned up by the system if set to true |
boolean | Default: "True" |
| marked_for_delete | Indicates whether the intent object is marked for deletion Intent objects are not directly deleted from the system when a delete is invoked on them. They are marked for deletion and only when all the realized entities for that intent object gets deleted, the intent object is deleted. Objects that are marked for deletion are not returned in GET call. One can use the search API to get these objects. |
boolean | Readonly Default: "False" |
| origin_site_id | A unique identifier assigned by the system for knowing which site owns an object This is a UUID generated by the system for knowing which site owns an object. This is used in NSX+. |
string | Readonly |
| overridden | Indicates whether this object is the overridden intent object Global intent objects cannot be modified by the user. However, certain global intent objects can be overridden locally by use of this property. In such cases, the overridden local values take precedence over the globally defined values for the properties. |
boolean | Readonly Default: "False" |
| owner_id | A unique identifier assigned by the system for the ownership of an object This is a UUID generated by the system for knowing who owns this object. This is used in NSX+. |
string | Readonly |
| packet | Packet configuration Configuration of packet data |
PacketData (Abstract type: pass one of the following concrete types) BinaryPacketData FieldsPacketData |
Required |
| parent_path | Path of its parent Path of its parent |
string | Readonly |
| path | Absolute path of this object Absolute path of this object |
string | Readonly |
| realization_id | A unique identifier assigned by the system for realizing intent This is a UUID generated by the system for realizing the entity object. In most cases this should be same as 'unique_id' of the entity. However, in some cases this can be different because of entities have migrated their unique identifier to NSX Policy intent objects later in the timeline and did not use unique_id for realization. Realization id is helpful for users to debug data path to correlate the configuration with corresponding intent. |
string | Readonly |
| relative_path | Relative path of this object Path relative from its parent |
string | Readonly |
| remote_path | Path of the object on the remote end. This path is populated only in case of multi-site scenario. Currently it is supported only for LM objects. When LM is onboarded to multi-site platform like NAPP or GM, remote_path will be set to the globally unique path across multi-site topology . It is generated based on local site-name and uses /org tree namespace. Note: It is populated only for LM objects. Not supported on the GM. |
string | Readonly |
| resource_type | Must be set to the value TraceflowConfig | string | |
| segment_port_path | Segment Port Path or UUID Policy path or UUID of segment port to start traceflow from. Auto-plumbed ports don't have corresponding policy path. Ports auto-created by policy as part of connecting segment to Tier-0 or Tier-1 or DHCP server cannot be used. UUID is validated for syntax only. This configuration will be cleaned up by the system after two hours of inactivity. |
string | Deprecated |
| source_id | Segment Port Path or UUID Policy path or UUID (validated for syntax only) of segment port to start traceflow from. Auto-plumbed ports don't have corresponding policy path. Both overlay backed port and VLAN backed port are supported. |
string | |
| tags | Opaque identifiers meaningful to the API user | array of Tag | Maximum items: 30 |
| timeout | Timeout for traceflow observation results Maximum time in seconds the management plane will wait for observation result to be generated. The default, minimum and maximum timeout values, in seconds, for: Single site environment - minimum 5, default 10, maximum 15. Federated enviroment - minimum 15, default 30, maximum 60. These values are validated by the system based on type of environment. |
integer | Minimum: 5 Maximum: 60 Default: "10" |
| unique_id | A unique identifier assigned by the system This is a UUID generated by the GM/LM to uniquely identify entities in a federated environment. For entities that are stretched across multiple sites, the same ID will be used on all the stretched sites. |
string | Readonly |
