List of IDs of the tagged VLANs

Enter [] to remove the tagged VLAN from a port.

List of tagged_network_ids is combined with list of tagged_network_names when adding tagged VLANs to a port.

To get the VLAN network ID use the API ` https://I(hostname <%20https://I(hostname>`__/api/NetworkConfigurationService/Networks)

tagged_network_names

list / elements=string

List of names of tagged VLANs

Enter [] to remove the tagged VLAN from a port.

It is mutually exclusive with template_name.

template_name

string

Name of the template.

It is mutually exclusive with template_id.

timeout

integer

added in dellemc.openmanage 5.0.0

The socket level timeout in seconds.

Default: 30

untagged_networks

list / elements=dictionary

List of untagged networks and their corresponding NIC ports.

port

integer / required

NIC port number of the untagged VLAN.

untagged_network_id

integer

ID of the untagged VLAN

Enter 0 to clear the untagged VLAN from the port.

This option is mutually exclusive with untagged_network_name

To get the VLAN network ID use the API ` https://I(hostname <%20https://I(hostname>`__/api/NetworkConfigurationService/Networks)

untagged_network_name

string

name of the vlan for untagging

provide 0 for clearing the untagging for this port

This parameter is mutually exclusive with untagged_network_id

username

string

OpenManage Enterprise or OpenManage Enterprise Modular username.

If the username is not provided, then the environment variable OME_USERNAME is used.

Example: export OME_USERNAME=username

validate_certs

boolean

added in dellemc.openmanage 5.0.0

If false, the SSL certificates will not be validated.
