Synopsis ¶

Manage SIP profiles on a BIG-IP system.

Parameters ¶

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
community string			When the `dialog_aware` is `yes` and the configuration requires multiple SIP virtual server-profile pairings, this string value indicates whether the pair belongs to the same SIP proxy functional group.
description string			Description of the profile. To remove the entry completely, set a value of `''`.
dialog_aware boolean		Choices: no yes	When `yes`, the system gathers SIP dialog information and automatically forwards SIP messages belonging to the known SIP dialog.
enable_sip_firewall boolean		Choices: no yes	Specifies whether the Advanced Firewall Manager (AFM) policy is enabled. When `yes`, the SIP Security settings configured in the DoS Profile in AFM apply to the virtual servers that use this profile.
insert_record_route_header boolean		Choices: no yes	When `yes`, inserts a Record-Route SIP header, which indicates the next hop for the following SIP request messages.
insert_via_header boolean		Choices: no yes	When `yes`, inserts a Via header in the forwarded SIP request. Via headers indicate the path taken through proxy devices and transports used. The response message uses this routing information.
log_profile string			Specifies the logging settings the publisher uses to send log messages. The format of the name can be either be prepended by partition (`/Common/foo`), or specified just as an object name (`foo`). To remove the entry. set a value of `''`, however the profile `log_publisher` must also be set as `''`.
log_publisher string			Specifies the publisher defined to log messages. Format of the name can be either be prepended by partition (`/Common/foo`), or specified just as an object name (`foo`). To remove the entry. set a value of `''`, however the profile `log_profile` must also be set as `''`.
max_size integer			Specifies the maximum SIP message size that the BIG-IP system accepts. The accepted value range is `0 - 4294967295` bytes.
name string / required			Specifies the name of the SIP profile to manage.
parent string			Specifies the profile from which this profile inherits settings. When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is the system-supplied `sip` profile.
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`.
secure_via_header boolean		Choices: no yes	When checked (enabled), inserts a secure Via header in the forwarded SIP request. A secure Via header indicates where the message originated. This parameter causes the inserted Via header to specify Transport Layer Security. For this option to take effect, `insert_via_header` must be set to (yes).
security boolean		Choices: no yes	When `yes`. enables the use of enhanced Horizontal Security Layer (HSL) security checking.
state string		Choices: present ← absent	When `present`, ensures the profile exists. When `absent`, ensures the profile is removed.
terminate_on_bye boolean		Choices: no yes	When `yes`, closes a connection when a BYE transaction finishes. A BYE transaction is a message an application sends to another application when it is ready to close the connection between the two.
user_via_header string			When `insert_via_header` is `yes`, specifies the Via value the system inserts as the top Via header in a SIP REQUEST message. The valid value must include SIP protocol and sent_by settings, for example: `SIP/2.0/UDP 10.10.10.10:5060`. To remove the entry completely, set a value of `''`.

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.
