#Using the API

virtctl vnc web-01 -n demo

virtctl vnc launches a local VNC viewer connected to the virtual machine instance vnc subresource over a WebSocket:

GET /apis/subresources.kubevirt.io/v1/namespaces/demo/virtualmachineinstances/web-01/vnc
Upgrade: websocket

A running instance returns 101 Switching Protocols; the connection requires the get verb on virtualmachineinstances/vnc.
