New in version 2.4.

Synopsis

• Create, delete, or modify a Direct Connect link aggregation group.

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

• boto
• boto3
• botocore
• python >= 2.6

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
aws_access_key -		AWS access key. If not set then the value of the AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY environment variable is used. aliases: ec2_access_key, access_key
aws_secret_key -		AWS secret key. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_KEY, or EC2_SECRET_KEY environment variable is used. aliases: ec2_secret_key, secret_key
bandwidth -		The bandwidth of the link aggregation group.
connection_id -		A connection ID to link with the link aggregation group upon creation.
delete_with_disassociation -		To be used with state=absent to delete connections after disassociating them with the LAG.
ec2_url -		Url to use to connect to EC2 or your Eucalyptus cloud (by default the module will use EC2 endpoints). Ignored for modules where region is required. Must be specified for all other modules if region is not used. If not set then the value of the EC2_URL environment variable, if any, is used.
force_delete -		This allows the minimum number of links to be set to 0, any hosted connections disassociated, and any virtual interfaces associated to the LAG deleted.
link_aggregation_group_id -		The ID of the Direct Connect link aggregation group.
location -		The location of the link aggregation group.
min_links -		The minimum number of physical connections that must be operational for the LAG itself to be operational.
name -		The name of the Direct Connect link aggregation group.
num_connections -		The number of connections with which to intialize the link aggregation group.
profile - added in 1.6		Uses a boto profile. Only works with boto >= 2.24.0.
region -		The AWS region to use. If not specified then the value of the AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION environment variable, if any, is used. See http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html#ec2_region aliases: aws_region, ec2_region
security_token - added in 1.6		AWS STS security token. If not set then the value of the AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN environment variable is used. aliases: access_token
state -	Choices: present absent	The state of the Direct Connect link aggregation group.
validate_certs boolean added in 1.5	Choices: no yes ←	When set to "no", SSL certificates will not be validated for boto versions >= 2.6.0.
wait boolean	Choices: no yes	Whether or not to wait for the operation to complete. May be useful when waiting for virtual interfaces to be deleted. May modify the time of waiting with wait_timeout.
wait_timeout -	Default: 120	The duration in seconds to wait if wait is True.

Notes

Note

• If parameters are not set within the module, the following environment variables can be used in decreasing order of precedence AWS_URL or EC2_URL, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID or AWS_ACCESS_KEY or EC2_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY or AWS_SECRET_KEY or EC2_SECRET_KEY, AWS_SECURITY_TOKEN or EC2_SECURITY_TOKEN, AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION
• Ansible uses the boto configuration file (typically ~/.boto) if no credentials are provided. See https://boto.readthedocs.io/en/latest/boto_config_tut.html
• AWS_REGION or EC2_REGION can be typically be used to specify the AWS region, when required, but this can also be configured in the boto config file

Examples

# create a Direct Connect connection
- aws_direct_connect_link_aggregation_group:
  state: present
  location: EqDC2
  lag_id: dxlag-xxxxxxxx
  bandwidth: 1Gbps

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
