provider
|

Deprecated
Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using
connection: network_cli.This option is only required if you are using NX-API.
For more information please see the NXOS Platform Options guide.
A dict object containing connection details.
|
|
username
|
|
Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate either the CLI login or the nxapi authentication depending on which transport is used. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable
ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME will be used instead. |
|
ssh_keyfile
|
|
Specifies the SSH key to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This argument is only used for the cli transport. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable
ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE will be used instead. |
|
use_proxy
(added in 2.5) |
|
If
no, the environment variables http_proxy and https_proxy will be ignored. |
|
host
required |
|
Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport. The value of host is used as the destination address for the transport.
|
|
timeout
(added in 2.3) |
Default:
10
|
Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error. NX-API can be slow to return on long-running commands (sh mac, sh bgp, etc).
|
|
use_ssl
|
|
Configures the transport to use SSL if set to true only when the
transport=nxapi, otherwise this value is ignored. |
|
password
|
|
Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This is a common argument used for either cli or nxapi transports. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable
ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD will be used instead. |
|
validate_certs
|
|
If
no, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only be used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. If the transport argument is not nxapi, this value is ignored. |
|
port
|
Default:
0 (use common port)
|
Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device. This value applies to either cli or nxapi. The port value will default to the appropriate transport common port if none is provided in the task. (cli=22, http=80, https=443).
|
|
transport
required |
Default:
cli
|
Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device. The transport argument supports connectivity to the device over cli (ssh) or nxapi.
|
|
redistribute
|
|
A list of redistribute directives. Multiple redistribute entries are allowed. The list must be in the form of a nested array. the first entry of each array defines the source-protocol to redistribute from; the second entry defines a route-map name. A route-map is highly advised but may be optional on some platforms, in which case it may be omitted from the array list. For example [['direct', 'rm_direct'], ['lisp', 'rm_lisp']].
|
|
safi
required |
|
Sub Address Family Identifier.
|
|
state
|
|
Determines whether the config should be present or not on the device.
|
|
suppress_inactive
|
|
Advertises only active routes to peers.
|
|
table_map
|
|
Apply table-map to filter routes downloaded into URIB. Valid values are a string.
|
|
table_map_filter
|
|
Filters routes rejected by the route-map and does not download them to the RIB.
|
|
vrf
required |
|
Name of the VRF. The name 'default' is a valid VRF representing the global bgp.
