11.1. Network Elements
The
networks collection provides information about the logical networks in a Red Hat Virtualization environment. An API user accesses this information through the rel="networks" link obtained from the entry point URI.
The following table shows specific elements contained in a network resource representation.
Table 11.1. Network elements
