Hi folks,

After getting cross eyed from staring at postman outputs [1] to debug ovsdb net-virt, I decided to write

a tool to dump mdsal info related to ovsdb and its netvirt (including high level flows). I placed this tool

in the ‘resources’ dir in the ovsdb project [2]. Gerrit is here [3].

With that, we can narrow into that is available in either config or operational trees. Usage is below [5].

See [4] for an example output.

Hope this is useful to folks playing with ovsdb netvirt.

Best,
