Synopsis ¶

Manages the AFM (Advanced Firewall Manager) address lists on a BIG-IP. This module can be used to add and remove address list entries.

Parameters ¶

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
address_lists list / elements=string			Simple list of existing address lists to add to this list. Address lists can be specified in either their fully qualified name (/Common/foo) or their short name (foo). If a short name is used, the `partition` argument will automatically be prepended to the short name.
address_ranges list / elements=string			A list of address ranges where the range starts with a port number, is followed by a dash (-), and then a second number. If the first address is greater than the second number, the numbers will be reversed so-as to be properly formatted. For example, `2.2.2.2-1.1.1`. would become `1.1.1.1-2.2.2.2`.
addresses list / elements=string			Individual addresses you want to add to the list. These addresses differ from ranges and lists of lists, such as what can be used in `address_ranges` and `address_lists` respectively. This list can also include networks that have CIDR notation.
description string			Description of the address list.
fqdns list / elements=string			A list of fully qualified domain names (FQDNs). An FQDN has at least one decimal point in it, separating the host from the domain. To add FQDNs to a list requires that a global FQDN resolver is configured. This must either be done via `bigip_command`, or in the GUI of the BIG-IP. If using `bigip_command`, you can do this with `tmsh modify security firewall global-fqdn-policy FOO` where `FOO` is a DNS resolver configured at `tmsh create net dns-resolver FOO`.
geo_locations list / elements=dictionary			List of geolocations specified by their `country` and `region`.
	country string / required	Choices: Any valid 2 character ISO country code. Any valid country name.	The country name, or code, of the geolocation to use. In addition to the country full names, you may also specify their abbreviated form, such as `US` instead of `United States`. Valid country codes can be found here https://countrycode.org/.
	region string		Region name of the country to use.
name string / required			Specifies the name of the address list.
partition string		Default: "Common"	Device partition to manage resources on.
provider dictionary added in 1.0.0 of f5networks.f5_modules			A dict object containing connection details.
	auth_provider string		Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices.
	no_f5_teem boolean	Choices: no yes	If `yes`, TEEM telemetry data is not sent to F5. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_TEEM`.
	password string / required		The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_PASSWORD`. aliases: pass, pwd
	server string / required		The BIG-IP host. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_SERVER`.
	server_port integer	Default: 443	The BIG-IP server port. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_SERVER_PORT`.
	timeout integer		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.
	transport string	Choices: rest ←	Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device.
	user string / required		The username to connect to the BIG-IP with. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_USER`.
	validate_certs boolean	Choices: no yes ←	If `no`, SSL certificates are not validated. Use this only on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_VALIDATE_CERTS`.
state string		Choices: present ← absent	When `present`, ensures the address list and entries exists. When `absent`, ensures the address list is removed.

Notes ¶

Note

For more information on using Ansible to manage F5 Networks devices see https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/f5.
Requires BIG-IP software version >= 12.
The F5 modules only manipulate the running configuration of the F5 product. To ensure that BIG-IP specific configuration persists to disk, be sure to include at least one task that uses the f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_config module to save the running configuration. Refer to the module’s documentation for the correct usage of the module to save your running configuration.

Examples ¶
