f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_routedomain module – Manage route domains on a BIG-IP

Note

This module is part of the f5networks.f5_modules collection (version 1.28.0).

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 f5networks.f5_modules.

To use it in a playbook, specify: f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_routedomain.

New in f5networks.f5_modules 1.0.0

Synopsis

• Manage route domains on a BIG-IP system. A route domain is a BIG-IP configuration object that isolates network traffic for a particular application on the network.

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
bwc_policy string	The bandwidth controller for the route domain.
connection_limit integer	The maximum number of concurrent connections allowed for the route domain. Setting this to 0 turns off connection limits.
description string	Specifies descriptive text that identifies the route domain.
flow_eviction_policy string	The eviction policy to use with this route domain. Apply an eviction policy to provide customized responses to flow overflows and slow flows on the route domain.
fw_enforced_policy string	Specifies an AFM policy to be attached to route domain. To remove attached AFM policy use "" or none as values.
id integer	The unique identifying integer representing the route domain. This field is required when creating a new route domain. In version 2.5, this value is no longer used to reference a route domain when making modifications to it (for instance during update and delete operations). Instead, the name parameter is used. In version 2.6, the name value will become a required parameter.
name string	The name of the route domain.
parent string	Specifies the route domain the system searches when it cannot find a route in the configured domain.
partition string	Partition on which you want to create the route domain. Partitions cannot be updated once they are created. Default: "Common"
provider dictionary added in f5networks.f5_modules 1.0.0	A dict object containing connection details.
auth_provider string	Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices.
no_f5_teem boolean	If yes, TEEM telemetry data is not sent to F5. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_TELEMETRY_OFF. Previously used variable F5_TEEM is deprecated as its name was confusing. Choices: false ← (default) true
password aliases: pass, pwd string / required	The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP or the BIG-IQ. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_PASSWORD.
server string / required	The BIG-IP host or the BIG-IQ host. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_SERVER.
server_port integer	The BIG-IP server port. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_SERVER_PORT. Default: 443
timeout integer	Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error.
transport string	Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device. Choices: "rest" ← (default)
user string / required	The username to connect to the BIG-IP or the BIG-IQ. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_USER.
validate_certs boolean	If no, SSL certificates are not validated. Use this only on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_VALIDATE_CERTS. Choices: false true ← (default)
routing_protocol list / elements=string	Dynamic routing protocols for the system to use in the route domain. Choices: "none" "BFD" "BGP" "IS-IS" "OSPFv2" "OSPFv3" "PIM" "RIP" "RIPng"
service_policy string	Service policy to associate with the route domain.
state string	Whether the route domain should exist or not. Choices: "present" ← (default) "absent"
strict boolean	Specifies whether the system enforces cross-routing restrictions or not. Choices: false true
vlans list / elements=string	VLANs for the system to use in the route domain.

Notes

Note

• For more information on using Ansible to manage F5 Networks devices see https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/f5.

• Requires BIG-IP software version >= 12.

• The F5 modules only manipulate the running configuration of the F5 product. To ensure that BIG-IP specific configuration persists to disk, be sure to include at least one task that uses the f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_config module to save the running configuration. Refer to the module’s documentation for the correct usage of the module to save your running configuration.

Examples

- name: Create a route domain

    provider:
      user: admin
      password: secret
      server: lb.mydomain.com
  delegate_to: localhost

- name: Set VLANs on the route domain
  bigip_routedomain:
    name: bar
    state: present
    vlans:
      - net1
      - foo
    provider:
      password: secret
