Notes

Note

  • SDK Method used are sensors.Sensors.create_sensor_test_template, sensors.Sensors.delete_sensor_test,

  • Paths used are post /dna/intent/api/v1/sensor, delete /dna/intent/api/v1/sensor,

  • Does not support check_mode

  • The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins, but instead the embedded connection manager from Cisco DNAC SDK

  • The parameters starting with dnac_ are used by the Cisco DNAC Python SDK to establish the connection
