Note

This module is part of the cisco.ise collection (version 2.9.3).

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 cisco.ise. You need further requirements to be able to use this module, see Requirements for details.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.ise.network_device_info.

New in cisco.ise 1.0.0

  • python >= 3.5

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

filter

list / elements=string

Filter query parameter. **Simple filtering** should be available through the filter query string parameter. The structure of a filter is a triplet of field operator and value separated with dots. More than one filter can be sent. The logical operator common to ALL filter criteria will be by default AND, and can be changed by using the “filterType=or” query string parameter.

Each resource Data model description should specify if an attribute is a filtered field.

The ‘EQ’ operator describes ‘Equals’.

The ‘NEQ’ operator describes ‘Not Equals’.

The ‘GT’ operator describes ‘Greater Than’.

The ‘LT’ operator describes ‘Less Than’.

The ‘STARTSW’ operator describes ‘Starts With’.

The ‘NSTARTSW’ operator describes ‘Not Starts With’.

The ‘ENDSW’ operator describes ‘Ends With’.

The ‘NENDSW’ operator describes ‘Not Ends With’.

The ‘CONTAINS’ operator describes ‘Contains’.

The ‘NCONTAINS’ operator describes ‘Not Contains’.

filterType

string

FilterType query parameter. The logical operator common to ALL filter criteria will be by default AND, and can be changed by using the parameter.

id

string

Id path parameter.

ise_debug

boolean

Flag for Identity Services Engine SDK to enable debugging.

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

ise_hostname

string / required

The Identity Services Engine hostname.

ise_password

string / required

The Identity Services Engine password to authenticate.

ise_single_request_timeout

integer

added in cisco.ise 3.0.0

Timeout (in seconds) for RESTful HTTP requests.

Default: 60

ise_username

string / required

The Identity Services Engine username to authenticate.

ise_uses_api_gateway

boolean

added in cisco.ise 1.1.0

Flag that informs the SDK whether to use the Identity Services Engine’s API Gateway to send requests.

If it is true, it uses the ISE’s API Gateway and sends requests to https://{{ise_hostname}}.

If it is false, it sends the requests to https://{{ise_hostname}}:{{port}}, where the port value depends on the Service used (ERS, Mnt, UI, PxGrid).

Choices:

  • false

  • true ← (default)

ise_uses_csrf_token

boolean

added in cisco.ise 3.0.0

Flag that informs the SDK whether we send the CSRF token to ISE’s ERS APIs.

If it is True, the SDK assumes that your ISE CSRF Check is enabled.

If it is True, it assumes you need the SDK to manage the CSRF token automatically for you.

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

ise_verify

boolean

Flag to enable or disable SSL certificate verification.

Choices:

  • false

  • true ← (default)

ise_version

string

Informs the SDK which version of Identity Services Engine to use.

Default: "3.1_Patch_1"

ise_wait_on_rate_limit

boolean

Flag for Identity Services Engine SDK to enable automatic rate-limit handling.

Choices:

  • false

  • true ← (default)

name

string

Name path parameter.

page

integer

Page query parameter. Page number.

size

integer

Size query parameter. Number of objects returned per page.

sortasc

string

Sortasc query parameter. Sort asc.

sortdsc

string

Sortdsc query parameter. Sort desc.

Notes

Note

  • SDK Method used are network_device.NetworkDevice.get_network_device_by_id, network_device.NetworkDevice.get_network_device_by_name, network_device.NetworkDevice.get_network_device_generator,

  • Paths used are get /ers/config/networkdevice, get /ers/config/networkdevice/name/{name}, get /ers/config/networkdevice/{id},

  • Supports check_mode

  • The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins, but instead the embedded connection manager from Cisco ISE SDK

  • The parameters starting with ise_ are used by the Cisco ISE Python SDK to establish the connection

    page: 1
    size: 20
    sortasc: string
    sortdsc: string
    filter: []
    filterType: AND
  register: result
