fortinet.fortios.fortios_system_cluster_sync – Configure FortiGate Session Life Support Protocol (FGSP) session synchronization in Fortinet’s FortiOS and FortiGate.

Note

This plugin is part of the fortinet.fortios collection (version 1.1.9).

To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install fortinet.fortios.

To use it in a playbook, specify: fortinet.fortios.fortios_system_cluster_sync.

New in version 2.9: of fortinet.fortios

Synopsis

  • This module is able to configure a FortiGate or FortiOS (FOS) device by allowing the user to set and modify system feature and cluster_sync category. Examples include all parameters and values need to be adjusted to datasources before usage. Tested with FOS v6.0.0

Requirements

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

  • ansible>=2.9.0

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
access_token
string
Token-based authentication. Generated from GUI of Fortigate.
state
string / required
    Choices:
  • present
  • absent
Indicates whether to create or remove the object.
system_cluster_sync
dictionary
Configure FortiGate Session Life Support Protocol (FGSP) session synchronization.
down_intfs_before_sess_sync
list / elements=string
List of interfaces to be turned down before session synchronization is complete.
name
string / required
Interface name. Source system.interface.name.
hb_interval
integer
Heartbeat interval (1 - 10 sec).
hb_lost_threshold
integer
Lost heartbeat threshold (1 - 10).
peerip
string
IP address of the interface on the peer unit that is used for the session synchronization link.
peervd
string
VDOM that contains the session synchronization link interface on the peer unit. Usually both peers would have the same peervd. Source system.vdom.name.
session_sync_filter
dictionary
Add one or more filters if you only want to synchronize some sessions. Use the filter to configure the types of sessions to synchronize.
custom_service
list / elements=string
Only sessions using these custom services are synchronized. Use source and destination port ranges to define these custome services.
dst_port_range
string
Custom service destination port range.
id
integer / required
Custom service ID.
src_port_range
string
Custom service source port range.
dstaddr
string
Only sessions to this IPv4 address are synchronized. You can only enter one address. To synchronize sessions for multiple destination addresses, add multiple filters.
dstaddr6
string
Only sessions to this IPv6 address are synchronized. You can only enter one address. To synchronize sessions for multiple destination addresses, add multiple filters.
dstintf
string
Only sessions to this interface are synchronized. You can only enter one interface name. To synchronize sessions to multiple destination interfaces, add multiple filters. Source system.interface.name.
srcaddr
string
Only sessions from this IPv4 address are synchronized. You can only enter one address. To synchronize sessions from multiple source addresses, add multiple filters.
srcaddr6
string
Only sessions from this IPv6 address are synchronized. You can only enter one address. To synchronize sessions from multiple source addresses, add multiple filters.
srcintf
string
Only sessions from this interface are synchronized. You can only enter one interface name. To synchronize sessions for multiple source interfaces, add multiple filters. Source system.interface.name.
slave_add_ike_routes
string
    Choices:
  • enable
  • disable
Enable/disable IKE route announcement on the backup unit.
sync_id
integer
Sync ID.
syncvd
list / elements=string
Sessions from these VDOMs are synchronized using this session synchronization configuration.
name
string / required
VDOM name. Source system.vdom.name.
vdom
string
Default:
"root"
Virtual domain, among those defined previously. A vdom is a virtual instance of the FortiGate that can be configured and used as a different unit.
