community.network.ce_ip_interface – Manages L3 attributes for IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces on HUAWEI CloudEngine switches.

Note

This plugin is part of the community.network collection (version 2.1.1).

To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.network.

To use it in a playbook, specify: community.network.ce_ip_interface.

Synopsis

• Manages Layer 3 attributes for IPv4 and IPv6 interfaces on HUAWEI CloudEngine switches.

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
addr string		IPv4 or IPv6 Address.
interface string / required		Full name of interface, i.e. 40GE1/0/22, vlanif10.
ipv4_type string	Choices: main ← sub	Specifies an address type. The value is an enumerated type. main, primary IP address. sub, secondary IP address.
mask string		Subnet mask for IPv4 or IPv6 Address in decimal format.
state string	Choices: present ← absent	Specify desired state of the resource.
version string	Choices: v4 ← v6	IP address version.

Notes

Note

• Interface must already be a L3 port when using this module.

• Logical interfaces (loopback, vlanif) must be created first.

• mask must be inserted in decimal format (i.e. 24) for both IPv6 and IPv4.

• A single interface can have multiple IPv6 configured.

• This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.

• Recommended connection is netconf.

• This module also works with local connections for legacy playbooks.

Return Values

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

Key	Returned	Description
changed boolean	always	check to see if a change was made on the device Sample: True
end_state dictionary	always	k/v pairs of IP attributes after module execution Sample: {'interface': '10GE1/0/22', 'ipv4': [{'addrType': 'main', 'ifIpAddr': '20.20.20.20', 'subnetMask': '255.255.255.0'}]}
existing dictionary	always	k/v pairs of existing IP attributes on the interface Sample: {'interface': '10GE1/0/22', 'ipv4': [{'addrType': 'main', 'ifIpAddr': '11.11.11.11', 'subnetMask': '255.255.0.0'}]}
proposed dictionary	always	k/v pairs of parameters passed into module Sample: {'addr': '20.20.20.20', 'interface': '10GE1/0/22', 'mask': '24'}
updates list / elements=string	always	commands sent to the device Sample: ['interface 10GE1/0/22', 'ip address 20.20.20.20 24']
