Choices/Defaults |
Comments |
description
string
|
|
Description of the trunk.
|
frame_distribution_hash
string
|
Choices:
- destination-mac
- source-destination-ip
- source-destination-mac
|
Specifies the basis for the hash the system uses as the frame distribution algorithm. The system uses the resulting hash to determine which interface to use for forwarding traffic.
When creating a new trunk, if this parameter is not specified, the default is source-destination-ip .
When source-destination-mac , specifies the system bases the hash on the combined MAC addresses of the source and the destination.
When destination-mac , specifies the system bases the hash on the MAC address of the destination.
When source-destination-ip , specifies the system bases the hash on the combined IP addresses of the source and the destination.
|
interfaces
list
/ elements=string
|
|
The interfaces that are part of the trunk.
To clear the list of interfaces, specify an empty list.
|
lacp_enabled
boolean
|
|
When yes , specifies the system supports the link aggregation control protocol (LACP), which monitors the trunk by exchanging control packets over the member links to determine the health of the links.
If LACP detects a failure in a member link, it removes the link from the link aggregation.
When creating a new trunk, if this parameter is not specified, LACP is no .
LACP is disabled by default for backward compatibility. If this does not apply to your network, we recommend that you enable LACP.
|
lacp_mode
string
|
|
Specifies the operation mode for link aggregation control protocol (LACP), if LACP is enabled for the trunk.
When creating a new trunk, if this parameter is not specified, the default is active .
When active , specifies the system periodically sends control packets regardless of whether the partner system has issued a request.
When passive , specifies the system sends control packets only when the partner system has issued a request.
|
lacp_timeout
string
|
|
Specifies the rate at which the system sends the LACP control packets.
When creating a new trunk, if this parameter is not specified, the default is long .
When long , specifies the system sends an LACP control packet every 30 seconds.
When short , specifies the system sends an LACP control packet every second.
|
link_selection_policy
string
|
Choices:
- auto
- maximum-bandwidth
|
Once the trunk is configured, specifies the policy the trunk uses to determine which member link (interface) can handle new traffic.
When creating a new trunk, if this value is not specified, the default is auto .
When auto , specifies the system automatically determines which interfaces can handle new traffic. For the auto option, the member links must all be the same media type and speed.
When maximum-bandwidth , specifies the system determines which interfaces can handle new traffic based on the members' maximum bandwidth.
|
name
string
/ required
|
|
Specifies the name of the trunk.
|
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
|
|
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
|
|
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
|
|
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 .
|
qinq_ethertype
raw
|
|
Specifies the ether-type value used for the packets handled on this trunk when it is a member in a QinQ VLAN.
The ether-type can be set to any string containing a valid hexadecimal 16 bits number, or any of the well known ether-types; 0x8100 , 0x9100 , 0x88a8 .
This parameter is not supported on Virtual Editions.
You should always wrap this value in quotes to prevent Ansible from interpreting the value as a literal hexadecimal number and converting it to an integer.
|
state
string
|
Choices:
present ←
- absent
|
When present , ensures the resource exists.
When absent , ensures the resource is removed.
