Working with Network_Pod

A few examples on interacting with Network Pod

Network_Pod

Get all Metric Pod

import SoftLayer
import json

client = SoftLayer.create_client_from_env()
network_pod_service = client['Network_Pod']

try:
    response = network_pod_service.getAllObjects()
    print(json.dumps(response, sort_keys=True, indent=2, separators=(',', ': ')))
except SoftLayer.SoftLayerAPIError as e:
    print("Unable to list the response for the package: \nfaultCode= %s, \n \nfaultString= %s"
          % (e.faultCode, e.faultString))

Get all Pods in a datacenter

import SoftLayer
import json

client = SoftLayer.create_client_from_env()
network_pod_service = client['Network_Pod']

# Filter by datacenter name
objectFilter={"datacenterName":{"operation": "ams01"}}

try:
    response = network_pod_service.getAllObjects(filter=objectFilter)
    print(json.dumps(response, sort_keys=True, indent=2, separators=(',', ': ')))
except SoftLayer.SoftLayerAPIError as e:
    print("Unable to list the response for the package: \nfaultCode= %s, \n \nfaultString= %s"
          % (e.faultCode, e.faultString))

Get network pod capabilities

import SoftLayer
import json

client = SoftLayer.create_client_from_env()
network_pod_service = client['Network_Pod']

# name =  datacenter name . pod name
name = "ams01.pod01"

try:
    response = network_pod_service.getCapabilities(id=name)
    print(json.dumps(response, sort_keys=True, indent=2, separators=(',', ': ')))
except SoftLayer.SoftLayerAPIError as e:
    print("Unable to list the response for the package: \nfaultCode= %s, \n \nfaultString= %s"
          % (e.faultCode, e.faultString))

Get the network pod object

import SoftLayer
import json

client = SoftLayer.create_client_from_env()
network_pod_service = client['Network_Pod']

# name =  datacenter name . pod name
name = "ams01.pod01"

try:
    response = network_pod_service.getObject(id=name)
    print(json.dumps(response, sort_keys=True, indent=2, separators=(',', ': ')))
except SoftLayer.SoftLayerAPIError as e:
    print("Unable to list the response for the package: \nfaultCode= %s, \n \nfaultString= %s"
          % (e.faultCode, e.faultString))

List network pod capabilities

import SoftLayer
import json

client = SoftLayer.create_client_from_env()
network_pod_service = client['Network_Pod']

try:
    response = network_pod_service.listCapabilities()
    print(json.dumps(response, sort_keys=True, indent=2, separators=(',', ': ')))
except SoftLayer.SoftLayerAPIError as e:
    print("Unable to list the response for the package: \nfaultCode= %s, \n \nfaultString= %s"
          % (e.faultCode, e.faultString))

Output Example

[
  "SUPPORTS_CUSTOMER_DEFINED_NETWORK",
  "SUPPORTS_MULTI_VLAN_DEDICATED_FIREWALL",
  "SUPPORTS_SECURITY_GROUP"
]
