In CloudStack 4.0.x each Nicira NVP setup is considered a "device" that can be added and removed from a physical network. To complete the configuration of the Nicira NVP plugin a device needs to be added to the physical network using the "addNiciraNVPDevice" API call. The plugin is now enabled on the physical network and any guest networks created on that network will be provisioned using the Nicra NVP Controller.
The plugin introduces a set of new API calls to manage the devices, see below or refer to the API reference.
addNiciraNvpDevice
physicalnetworkid: the UUID of the physical network on which the device is configured
hostname: the IP address of the NVP controller
username: the username for access to the NVP API
password: the password for access to the NVP API
transportzoneuuid: the UUID of the transportzone
deleteNiciraNVPDevice
listNiciraNVPDevices
