fortinet.fortios.fortios_wanopt_profile – Configure WAN optimization profiles in Fortinet’s FortiOS and FortiGate.

Note

This plugin is part of the fortinet.fortios collection (version 2.1.3).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

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

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

New in version 2.10: of fortinet.fortios

Synopsis

• This module is able to configure a FortiGate or FortiOS (FOS) device by allowing the user to set and modify wanopt feature and profile 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	Comments
access_token string	Token-based authentication. Generated from GUI of Fortigate.
enable_log boolean	Enable/Disable logging for task. Choices: no ← (default) yes
member_path string	Member attribute path to operate on. Delimited by a slash character if there are more than one attribute. Parameter marked with member_path is legitimate for doing member operation.
member_state string	Add or delete a member under specified attribute path. When member_state is specified, the state option is ignored. Choices: present absent
state string / required	Indicates whether to create or remove the object. Choices: present absent
vdom string	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. Default: “root”
