cisco.nxos.nxos_ospf_interfaces module – OSPF Interfaces Resource Module.

Note

This module is part of the cisco.nxos collection (version 9.2.1).

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.nxos.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.nxos.nxos_ospf_interfaces.

New in cisco.nxos 1.3.0

Synopsis

  • This module manages OSPF(v2/v3) configuration of interfaces on devices running Cisco NX-OS.

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

config

list / elements=dictionary

A list of OSPF configuration for interfaces.

address_family

list / elements=dictionary

OSPF settings on the interfaces in address-family context.

afi

string / required

Address Family Identifier (AFI) for OSPF settings on the interfaces.

Choices:

  • "ipv4"

  • "ipv6"

authentication

dictionary

Authentication settings on the interface.

enable

boolean

Enable/disable authentication on the interface.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

key_chain

string

Authentication password key-chain.

message_digest

boolean

Use message-digest authentication.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

null_auth

boolean

Use null(disable) authentication.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

authentication_key

dictionary

Configure the authentication key for the interface.

encryption

integer

0 Specifies an UNENCRYPTED authentication key will follow.

3 Specifies an 3DES ENCRYPTED authentication key will follow.

7 Specifies a Cisco type 7 ENCRYPTED authentication key will follow.

key

string / required

Authentication key.

Valid values are Cisco type 7 ENCRYPTED password, 3DES ENCRYPTED password and UNENCRYPTED (cleartext) password based on the value of encryption key.

cost

integer

Cost associated with interface.

dead_interval

integer

Dead interval value (in seconds).

default_passive_interface

boolean

Set passive-interface attribute on this interface to default.

This option is mutually exclusive with passive_interface.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

hello_interval

integer

Hello interval value (in seconds).

instance

integer

Instance identifier.

message_digest_key

dictionary

Message digest authentication password (key) settings.

encryption

integer

0 Specifies an UNENCRYPTED ospf password (key) will follow.

3 Specifies an 3DES ENCRYPTED ospf password (key) will follow.

7 Specifies a Cisco type 7 ENCRYPTED the ospf password (key) will follow.

key

string / required

Authentication key.

Valid values are Cisco type 7 ENCRYPTED password, 3DES ENCRYPTED password and UNENCRYPTED (cleartext) password based on the value of encryption key.

key_id

integer / required

Key ID.

mtu_ignore

boolean

Enable/disable OSPF MTU mismatch detection.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

multi_areas

list / elements=string

Multi-Areas associated with interface (not tied to OSPF process).

Valid values are Area Ids as an integer or IP address.

network

string

Network type.

Choices:

  • "broadcast"

  • "point-to-point"

passive_interface

boolean

Suppress routing updates on the interface.

This option is mutually exclusive with default_passive_interface.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

priority

integer

Router priority.

processes

list / elements=dictionary

Interfaces configuration for an OSPF process.

area

dictionary

Area associated with interface.

area_id

string / required

Area ID in IP address format.

secondaries

boolean

Do not include secondary IPv4/IPv6 addresses.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

multi_areas

list / elements=string

Multi-Areas associated with interface.

Valid values are Area Ids as an integer or IP address.

process_id

string / required

OSPF process tag.

retransmit_interval

integer

Packet retransmission interval.

shutdown

boolean

Shutdown OSPF on this interface.

Choices:

  • false

  • true

transmit_delay

integer

Packet transmission delay.

name

string / required

Name/Identifier of the interface.

running_config

string

This option is used only with state parsed.

The value of this option should be the output received from the NX-OS device by executing the command show running-config | section “^interface”.

The state parsed reads the configuration from running_config option and transforms it into Ansible structured data as per the resource module’s argspec and the value is then returned in the parsed key within the result.

state

string

The state the configuration should be left in.

Choices:

  • "merged" ← (default)

  • "replaced"

  • "overridden"

  • "deleted"

  • "gathered"

  • "parsed"

  • "rendered"

Notes

Note

  • Unsupported for Cisco MDS

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key

Description

after

list / elements=string

The resulting configuration model invocation.

Returned: when changed

Sample: ["The configuration returned will always be in the same format\n of the parameters above.\n"]

before

list / elements=string

The configuration prior to the model invocation.

Returned: always

Sample: ["The configuration returned will always be in the same format\n of the parameters above.\n"]

commands

list / elements=string

The set of commands pushed to the remote device.

Returned: always

Sample: ["interface Ethernet1/1", "ip router ospf multi-area 11.11.11.11", "ip router ospf 100 area 1.1.1.1 secondaries none", "no ipv6 router ospfv3 multi-area 16.10.10.10", "ipv6 router ospfv3 200 area 2.2.2.2", "ipv6 router ospfv3 200 multi-area 21.0.0.0", "ipv6 router ospfv3 300 multi-area 50.50.50.50", "interface Ethernet1/2", "no ip ospf authentication key-chain test-1", "ip ospf authentication"]

gathered

list / elements=string

Facts about the network resource gathered from the remote device as structured data.

Returned: when state is gathered

Sample: ["This output will always be in the same format as the module argspec.\n"]

parsed

list / elements=string

The device native config provided in running_config option parsed into structured data as per module argspec.

Returned: when state is parsed

Sample: ["This output will always be in the same format as the module argspec.\n"]

rendered

list / elements=string

The provided configuration in the task rendered in device-native format (offline).

Returned: when state is rendered

Sample: ["interface Ethernet1/1", "ip router ospf multi-area 11.11.11.11", "ip router ospf 100 area 1.1.1.1 secondaries none"]
