neutron CLI¶
The OpenStack tool primarily used for managing Cloud Networks is written in Python and called neutron. It is also known as python-neutronclient.
We recommend that you use the Python Package Index (PyPI) to install neutronclient, because it installs dependencies and required packages for you.
Alternatively, you can download the rackspace-neutronclient
package from
the
GitHub repository for rackspace-neutronclient.
The following OpenStack documents can help you install neutronclient and learn to use it:
Note
You can use OpenStack documentation to help you learn to use OpenStack CLIs in the Rackspace Cloud. OpenStack documents describe general practice; you should expect to supply some Rackspace-specific details. Use your Rackspace credentials where the OpenStack examples ask for OpenStack credentials.
For example,
where you are asked for
OS_USERNAME
,
supply your Rackspace username.
