Synopsis

  • Add, modify, and delete One Time Passwords in IPA.

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

algorithm

string

Token hash algorithm.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

Choices:

  • sha1

  • sha256

  • sha384

  • sha512

counter

integer

Initial counter for the HOTP token.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

description

string

Description of the token (informational only).

digits

integer

Number of digits each token code will have.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

Choices:

  • 6

  • 8

enabled

boolean

Mark the token as enabled (default true).

Choices:

  • no

  • yes ← (default)

interval

integer

Length of TOTP token code validity in seconds.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

ipa_host

string

IP or hostname of IPA server.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_HOST will be used instead.

If both the environment variable IPA_HOST and the value are not specified in the task, then DNS will be used to try to discover the FreeIPA server.

The relevant entry needed in FreeIPA is the ‘ipa-ca’ entry.

If neither the DNS entry, nor the environment IPA_HOST, nor the value are available in the task, then the default value will be used.

Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.

Default: “ipa.example.com”

ipa_pass

string

Password of administrative user.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_PASS will be used instead.

Note that if the ‘urllib_gssapi’ library is available, it is possible to use GSSAPI to authenticate to FreeIPA.

If the environment variable KRB5CCNAME is available, the module will use this kerberos credentials cache to authenticate to the FreeIPA server.

If the environment variable KRB5_CLIENT_KTNAME is available, and KRB5CCNAME is not; the module will use this kerberos keytab to authenticate.

If GSSAPI is not available, the usage of ‘ipa_pass’ is required.

Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.

ipa_port

integer

Port of FreeIPA / IPA server.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_PORT will be used instead.

If both the environment variable IPA_PORT and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set.

Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.

Default: 443

ipa_prot

string

Protocol used by IPA server.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_PROT will be used instead.

If both the environment variable IPA_PROT and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set.

Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.

Choices:

  • http

  • https ← (default)

ipa_timeout

integer

Specifies idle timeout (in seconds) for the connection.

For bulk operations, you may want to increase this in order to avoid timeout from IPA server.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_TIMEOUT will be used instead.

If both the environment variable IPA_TIMEOUT and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set.

Default: 10

ipa_user

string

Administrative account used on IPA server.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_USER will be used instead.

If both the environment variable IPA_USER and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set.

Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.

Default: “admin”

model

string

Token model (informational only).

newuniqueid

string

If specified, the unique id specified will be changed to this.

notafter

string

Last date/time the token can be used.

In the format YYYYMMddHHmmss.

For example, 20200121182022 will allow the token to be used until 21 January 2020 at 18:20:22.

notbefore

string

First date/time the token can be used.

In the format YYYYMMddHHmmss.

For example, 20180121182022 will allow the token to be used starting on 21 January 2018 at 18:20:22.

offset

integer

TOTP token / IPA server time difference.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

otptype

string

Type of OTP.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

Choices:

  • totp

  • hotp

owner

string

Assigned user of the token.

secretkey

string

Token secret (Base64).

If OTP is created and this is not specified, a random secret will be generated by IPA.

Note: Cannot be modified after OTP is created.

serial

string

Token serial (informational only).

state

string

State to ensure.

Choices:

  • present ← (default)

  • absent

uniqueid

aliases: name

string / required

Unique ID of the token in IPA.

validate_certs

boolean

This only applies if ipa_prot is https.

If set to no, the SSL certificates will not be validated.

This should only set to no used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.

Choices:

  • no

  • yes ← (default)

vendor

string

Token vendor name (informational only).
