cisco.aci.aci_l3out_dhcp_relay_label module – Manage Layer 3 Outside (L3Out) DHCP Relay Label (dhcp:Lbl)

Note

This module is part of the cisco.aci collection (version 2.10.1).

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 cisco.aci.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.aci.aci_l3out_dhcp_relay_label.

Synopsis

• Manage DHCP Relay Labels for L3Out Logical Interface Profiles on Cisco ACI fabrics.

• A DHCP Relay Label contains the name of an existing DHCP Relay Policy for the label, the scope, and a DHCP Option Policy.

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
annotation string	User-defined string for annotating an object. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_ANNOTATION will be used instead. If the value is not specified in the task and environment variable ACI_ANNOTATION then the default value will be used. Default: "orchestrator:ansible"
certificate_name aliases: cert_name string	The X.509 certificate name attached to the APIC AAA user used for signature-based authentication. If a private_key filename was provided, this defaults to the private_key basename, without extension. If PEM-formatted content was provided for private_key, this defaults to the username value. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_CERTIFICATE_NAME will be used instead.
description aliases: descr string	The description of the DHCP Relay Label.
dhcp_option_policy aliases: dhcp_option_policy_name string	The name of an existing DHCP Option Policy to be associated with the DCHP Relay Policy. The DHCP option policy supplies DHCP clients with configuration parameters such as domain, nameserver, and subnet router addresses. Passing an empty string will delete the current linked DHCP Option Policy. However, this will associate the DHCP Relay Label to the default DHCP Option Policy from the common Tenant.
dhcp_relay_label aliases: name, relay_policy string	The name/label of an existing DHCP Relay Policy.
host aliases: hostname string	IP Address or hostname of APIC resolvable by Ansible control host. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_HOST will be used instead.
interface_profile aliases: interface_profile_name, logical_interface string	The name of an existing interface profile.
l3out aliases: l3out_name string	The name of an existing L3Out.
node_profile aliases: node_profile_name, logical_node string	The name of an existing node profile.
output_level string	Influence the output of this ACI module. normal means the standard output, incl. current dict info adds informational output, incl. previous, proposed and sent dicts debug adds debugging output, incl. filter_string, method, response, status and url information If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_OUTPUT_LEVEL will be used instead. Choices: "debug" "info" "normal" ← (default)
output_path string	Path to a file that will be used to dump the ACI JSON configuration objects generated by the module. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_OUTPUT_PATH will be used instead.
owner_key string	User-defined string for the ownerKey attribute of an ACI object. This attribute represents a key for enabling clients to own their data for entity correlation. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_OWNER_KEY will be used instead.
owner_tag string	User-defined string for the ownerTag attribute of an ACI object. This attribute represents a tag for enabling clients to add their own data. For example, to indicate who created this object. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_OWNER_TAG will be used instead.
password string	The password to use for authentication. This option is mutual exclusive with private_key. If private_key is provided too, it will be used instead. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variables ACI_PASSWORD or ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD will be used instead.
port integer	Port number to be used for REST connection. The default value depends on parameter use_ssl. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_PORT will be used instead.
private_key aliases: cert_key string	Either a PEM-formatted private key file or the private key content used for signature-based authentication. This value also influences the default certificate_name that is used. This option is mutual exclusive with password. If password is provided too, it will be ignored. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_PRIVATE_KEY or ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE will be used instead.
scope aliases: owner string	The scope is the owner of the relay server. The APIC defaults to infra when unset during creation. Choices: "infra" "tenant"
state string	Use present or absent for adding or removing. Use query for listing an object or multiple objects. Choices: "absent" "present" ← (default) "query"
suppress_previous aliases: no_previous, ignore_previous boolean	If true, a GET to check previous will not be sent before a POST update to APIC. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_SUPPRESS_PREVIOUS will be used instead. The default value is false. WARNING - This causes the previous return value to be empty. The previous state of the object will not be checked and the POST update will contain all properties. Choices: false true
suppress_verification aliases: no_verification, no_verify, suppress_verify, ignore_verify, ignore_verification boolean	If true, a verifying GET will not be sent after a POST update to APIC. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_SUPPRESS_VERIFICATION will be used instead. The default value is false. WARNING - This causes the current return value to be set to the proposed value. The current object including default values will be unverifiable in a single task. Choices: false true
tenant aliases: tenant_name string	The name of an existing tenant.
timeout integer	The socket level timeout in seconds. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_TIMEOUT will be used instead. The default value is 30.
use_proxy boolean	If false, it will not use a proxy, even if one is defined in an environment variable on the target hosts. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_USE_PROXY will be used instead. The default value is true. Choices: false true
use_ssl boolean	If false, an HTTP connection will be used instead of the default HTTPS connection. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_USE_SSL will be used instead. The default value is true when the connection is local. Choices: false true
username aliases: user string	The username to use for authentication. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variables ACI_USERNAME or ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME will be used instead. The default value is admin.
validate_certs boolean	If false, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only set to false when used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_VALIDATE_CERTS will be used instead. The default value is true. Choices: false true

Notes

Note

• The tenant, l3out, node_profile, interface_profile and relay_policy must exist before using this module in your playbook. The cisco.aci.aci_tenant, cisco.aci.aci_l3out, cisco.aci.aci_l3out_logical_node_profile, cisco.aci.aci_l3out_logical_interface_profile and cisco.aci.aci_dhcp_relay can be used for this.

• If dhcp_option_policy is used, it must exist before using this module in your playbook. The cisco.aci.aci_dhcp_option_policy can be used for this.
