Hi.
For this purpose we use special naming sheme:
hostname of VE contain name of NH as service hostname.
i.e. 1111.ovz1.domain.ru, 2222.ovz2.domain.ru, 3333.ovz3.domain.ru and
VEID is uniq for ALL HN's
Or we can use traceroute utility from outside
i.e. traceroute ve-domain.com
traceroute to ve-domain.com (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
1 ....
2 ....
3 ....
HW name -->> 4 hwnodename.domain.com (yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy.) 2.775 ms
2.762 ms 2.741 ms
5 ve-domain.com (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) 2.727 ms 2.702 ms
2.687 ms
If VE and HN has real IP and HN's , you can use traceroute inside VE
i.e. traceroute ya.ru
traceroute to ya.ru (87.250.251.3), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
HW name -->> 1 hwhonename (yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy) 0.090 ms 0.015 ms 0.015 ms
2 ...
3 ...
4 ...
5 ...
6 www.yandex.ru (87.250.251.3) 1.510 ms 1.907 ms 2.116 ms
