Configure settings to send out emails from Cisco Catalyst Center. Also we can create or configure email destination in Cisco Catalyst Center only once then later we can just modify it. This one is just used to configure the Primary and Secondary SMTP server while configuring the email destination. It’s not related to email event subscription notification.

primary_smtp_config

dictionary

Add the primary configuration for smtp while creating/updating email destination.

password

string

Password for Authenticating Primary SMTP Server.

port

string

Type of SNMP authentication protocol to use, such as MD5 or SHA.

MD5 - Refers to Message Digest Algorithm 5, a well-established cryptographic hash function generating a 128-bit hash value, employed in SNMPv3 for message authenticity and integrity verification.

community

string

SNMP community string used for authentication, necessary only when the snmp_version is set to V2C.

description

string / required

Description of the SNMP destination.

mode

string

The security mode for SNMP communication (options - AUTH_PRIVACY, AUTH_NO_PRIVACY, NO_AUTH_NO_PRIVACY). Mandatory for snmp_version V3 and must not be set to NONE. AUTH_PRIVACY - The most secure mode, providing both verification of the message source through authentication and protection of message contents with encryption. If this option is selected, must need to provide auth_type, auth_password, privacy_type, privacy_password parameter in the playbook. AUTH_NO_PRIVACY - This mode ensures the authenticity of SNMP messages via a community string for validation but does not encrypt the data, leaving it vulnerable to interception. If this option is selected, must need to provide auth_type, auth_password parameter in the playbook. NO_AUTH_NO_PRIVACY - In this mode, SNMP messages are neither authenticated nor encrypted, making it the least secure as it requires no credentials or data protection. If this option is selected, not need to provide auth_type, auth_password, privacy_type, privacy_password parameter in the playbook.

name

string / required

Name of the SNMP destination.

port

string / required

Port number on which the SNMP server is listening.

privacy_password

string

server_address

string / required

IP address of the SNMP server.

snmp_version

string

The SNMP protocol version used for network management and monitoring, selectable between SNMPv2c and SNMPv3. V2C - Utilizes community strings for the authentication between the SNMP manager (like Cisco Catalyst) and managed network devices (routers, switches, access points), without encryption, as strings are sent in plain text. V3 - Offers enhanced security features over V2C, including authentication, integrity, and encryption, using usernames, passwords, and encryption keys for secure communications.

username

string

Username required for SNMP authentication, applicable exclusively when the snmp_version is configured to V3.

protocol

string / required

Protocol used for sending syslog messages (e.g., UDP, TCP). Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) - It is a connection-oriented protocol used for reliable and ordered communication between devices on a network. It provides error-checking, retransmission of lost packets, and ensures that data is delivered in the correct order. User Datagram Protocol (UDP) - It is a connectionless protocol used for sending datagrams between devices on a network. It provides a lightweight, best-effort delivery mechanism without guaranteeing delivery or ordering of packets. UDP is commonly used for real-time applications such as streaming media, online gaming, and VoIP.

server_address

webhook_destination

dictionary

Dictionary containing the details for configuring/updating the REST Endpoint to receive Audit logs and Events from Cisco Catalyst Center Platform.

description

string

A brief explanation of what the webhook destination is used for.

headers

list / elements=dictionary

A list of HTTP headers to be included in the webhook request. Each header is represented as a dictionary. While giving the headers details we can categorize them into - “Basic, Token and No Auth”. Basic Authentication - It is used to ensure that the receiving server can validate the identity of the requesting server by checking the credentials against its store. This method is straightforward but less secure compared to others since credentials are sent encoded but not encrypted. Token Authentication - It involves security tokens which are typically generated by the server. A client must send this token in the HTTP header to access resources. It is more secure than Basic Authentication as it allows the server to issue tokens that can have a limited lifetime, be revoked, and carry specific permissions without exposing user credentials. No Auth - It implies that no authentication method is required to access the webhook destination. This setting can be used in environments where security is either handled by other means (such as network isolation) or where the data being transmitted is not sensitive.

default_value

string

Default value for the HTTP header that can be used if no specific value is provided.

encrypt

boolean

Indicates whether the value of the header should be encrypted. Useful for sensitive data.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

method

string

The HTTP method used by the webhook when sending requests (e.g., POST, PUT). POST - It is typically used to create a new webhook destination. When you set up a new webhook in Cisco Catalyst Center, you would use the POST method to send the necessary configuration details (like URL, headers, payload format, etc.) to the server. PUT - It is used to update an existing webhook destination. If a webhook destination is already configured and you need to change any of its settings—such as modifying the URL, adjusting headers, or changing the payload format.

name

string / required

Name of the webhook destination. A unique identifier for the webhook destination within the system.

Notes

Note

  • To ensure the module operates correctly with scaled sets—such as creating or updating multiple destinations and handling event subscription notifications—please ensure that valid input is provided in the playbook. If any failure occurs, the module will halt execution and will not proceed to subsequent operations.

  • Configuring the webhook destination with headers now supports starting from dnacentersdk version 2.9.1 onwards. This enhancement is in alignment with Catalyst Center Release 2.3.7.5.

  • Configuring the SNMP destination now supports starting from dnacentersdk version 2.9.1 onwards. This enhancement is in alignment with Catalyst Center Release 2.3.7.5.
