[Xen-API] Get the vif label from XendAPI

[Derenale Corrado <c.derenale@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

 

is there a way to get the label of a vif interface as seen by dom0 using the XendAPI?

 

tap-vif792 (see my ifconfig excerpt below) is the qemu interface.

 

I need to get the string  ‘tap-vif792’ or ‘vif792’  from the XendAPI, but I was not able to find the relationship between the VIF class and the labels of the interfaces as seen by the dom0.

 

Any hints?

 

Thanks and Regards,

 

Corrado.

 

The ifconfig from dom0 shows the following output:
