api_region string	Default: "cloudstack"	Name of the ini section in the cloustack.ini file. If not given, the CLOUDSTACK_REGION env variable is considered.
api_secret string		Secret key of the CloudStack API. If not set, the CLOUDSTACK_SECRET env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_timeout integer		HTTP timeout in seconds. If not given, the CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is 10 seconds if not specified.
api_url string		URL of the CloudStack API e.g. https://cloud.example.com/client/api. If not given, the CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_verify_ssl_cert string		CA authority cert file. If not given, the CLOUDSTACK_VERIFY env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is null if not specified.

domain string		Domain the VPC is related to.
end_port integer		End port for this rule. Considered if protocol=tcp or protocol=udp. If not specified, equal start_port.
icmp_code integer		Error code for this icmp message. Considered if protocol=icmp.
icmp_type integer		Type of the icmp message being sent. Considered if protocol=icmp.
network_acl string / required		Name of the network ACL. aliases: acl
poll_async boolean	Choices: no yes ←	Poll async jobs until job has finished.
project string		Name of the project the VPC is related to.
protocol string	Choices: tcp ← udp icmp all by_number	Protocol of the rule
protocol_number integer		Protocol number from 1 to 256 required if protocol=by_number.

state string	Choices: present ← absent	State of the network ACL rule.
tags list / elements=dictionary		List of tags. Tags are a list of dictionaries having keys key and value. If you want to delete all tags, set a empty list e.g. tags: []. aliases: tag
traffic_type string	Choices: ingress ← egress	Traffic type of the rule. aliases: type
vpc string / required		VPC the network ACL is related to.
zone string		Name of the zone the VPC related to. If not set, default zone is used.

Notes

Note

• Ansible uses the cs library’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the arguments api_url, api_key, api_secret. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. The CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT, CLOUDSTACK_KEY, CLOUDSTACK_SECRET and CLOUDSTACK_METHOD. CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT environment variables. A CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG environment variable pointing to an .ini file. A cloudstack.ini file in the current working directory. A .cloudstack.ini file in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections in cloudstack.ini. Use the argument api_region to select the section name, default section is cloudstack. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information.

• A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.

• This module supports check mode.
