Hey Jamey
The attachment field is indeed the VIF id that's attached to the
port currently, in my case the VIF id ended up being '1' :)
I'll add a label and instance id/name in that column.
Thanks

I assume that each port can only have one attachment. It
would be useful (in the port details) to see the
instanceID/vifID that's attached to the port rather than the
number of attachments.
Otherwise it looks great.
Hey Dan,
- Yeah available ports refers to ports wihthout
attachments.. there's no limits at least in the dashboard to
the number of ports you can add. The nomenclature can be
changed if's ambiguous.
- The VIF id's are actually real VIF ids from nova
instances. I extended nova's default server view to expose
the VIF id's just to get the last bit of the dashboard
working. I was gonna ask in today meeting whether I should
commit this bit or wait for a proper extension.
Thanks

A couple of quick questions:
- I noticed the notion of "Available" ports. Does
this just refer to ports without attachments? When I
first saw it, I thought it implied some maximum number
of ports on the network. Just want to confirm that one
has the ability to dynamically add additional ports to
the network at any time.
- The picker for the selecting interfaces is very
cool. I'm guessing this works just by listing
interfaces and assuming each VM has exactly one VIF? As
a heads up, Ryu + Troy are working on an extension to
nova that will expose true VIF-ids via the nova API.
This same vif-id will also be passed down to the
vif-plug driver, allowing the quantum plugin to know
exactly where each vif-id is plugged in.
