Parameters

Parameter	Comments
allow_useg string	Allows micro-segmentation. The APIC defaults to encap when unset during creation. Choices: "encap" "useg"
annotation string	User-defined string for annotating an object. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_ANNOTATION will be used instead. If the value is not specified in the task and environment variable ACI_ANNOTATION then the default value will be used. Default: "orchestrator:ansible"
ap aliases: app_profile, app_profile_name string	Name of an existing application network profile, that will contain the EPGs.
certificate_name aliases: cert_name string	The X.509 certificate name attached to the APIC AAA user used for signature-based authentication. If a private_key filename was provided, this defaults to the private_key basename, without extension. If PEM-formatted content was provided for private_key, this defaults to the username value. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_CERTIFICATE_NAME will be used instead.
custom_epg_name string	The custom epg name in VMM domain association.
delimiter string	The delimiter. Choices: "|" "~" "!" "@" "^" "+" "=" "_"
deploy_immediacy string	Determines when the policy is pushed to hardware Policy CAM. The APIC defaults to lazy when unset during creation. Choices: "immediate" "lazy"
domain aliases: domain_name, domain_profile string	Name of the physical or virtual domain being associated with the EPG.
domain_type aliases: type string	Specify whether the Domain is a physical (phys), a virtual (vmm) or an L2 external domain association (l2dom). Choices: "l2dom" "phys" "vmm"
encap integer	The VLAN encapsulation for the EPG when binding a VMM Domain with static encap_mode. This acts as the secondary encap when using useg. Accepted values range between 1 and 4096.
encap_mode string	The encapsulation method to be used. The APIC defaults to auto when unset during creation. If vxlan is selected, switching_mode must be “AVE”. Choices: "auto" "vlan" "vxlan"
enhanced_lag_policy aliases: lag_policy string	Name of the VMM Domain Enhanced Lag Policy.
epg aliases: epg_name, name string	Name of the end point group.
forged_transmits string	Allow forged transmits. A forged transmit occurs when a network adapter starts sending out traffic that identifies itself as something else. Choices: "accept" "reject" ← (default)
host aliases: hostname string	IP Address or hostname of APIC resolvable by Ansible control host. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_HOST will be used instead.
mac_changes string	Allows definition of new MAC addresses for the network adapter within the virtual machine (VM). Choices: "accept" "reject" ← (default)
netflow boolean	Determines if netflow should be enabled. The APIC defaults to false when unset during creation. Choices: false true
number_of_ports integer	The number of ports.
output_level string	Influence the output of this ACI module. normal means the standard output, incl. current dict info adds informational output, incl. previous, proposed and sent dicts debug adds debugging output, incl. filter_string, method, response, status and url information If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_OUTPUT_LEVEL will be used instead. Choices: "debug" "info" "normal" ← (default)
output_path string	Path to a file that will be used to dump the ACI JSON configuration objects generated by the module. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_OUTPUT_PATH will be used instead.
password string	The password to use for authentication. This option is mutual exclusive with private_key. If private_key is provided too, it will be used instead. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variables ACI_PASSWORD or ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD will be used instead.
port integer	Port number to be used for REST connection. The default value depends on parameter use_ssl. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_PORT will be used instead.
port_allocation string	The port allocation method. Choices: "elastic" "fixed"
port_binding string	The port binding method. Choices: "dynamic" "ephemeral" "static"
primary_encap integer	Determines the primary VLAN ID when using useg. Accepted values range between 1 and 4096.
private_key aliases: cert_key string	Either a PEM-formatted private key file or the private key content used for signature-based authentication. This value also influences the default certificate_name that is used. This option is mutual exclusive with password. If password is provided too, it will be ignored. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_PRIVATE_KEY or ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE will be used instead.

If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_SUPPRESS_PREVIOUS will be used instead. The default value is false. WARNING - This causes the previous return value to be empty. The previous state of the object will not be checked and the POST update will contain all properties. Choices: false true
suppress_verification aliases: no_verification, no_verify, suppress_verify, ignore_verify, ignore_verification boolean	If true, a verifying GET will not be sent after a POST update to APIC. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_SUPPRESS_VERIFICATION will be used instead. The default value is false. WARNING - This causes the current return value to be set to the proposed value. The current object including default values will be unverifiable in a single task. Choices: false true
switching_mode string	Switching Mode used by the switch Choices: "AVE" "native" ← (default)
tenant aliases: tenant_name string	Name of an existing tenant.

use_ssl boolean	If false, an HTTP connection will be used instead of the default HTTPS connection. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_USE_SSL will be used instead. The default value is true when the connection is local. Choices: false true
username aliases: user string	The username to use for authentication. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variables ACI_USERNAME or ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME will be used instead. The default value is admin.
validate_certs boolean	If false, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only set to false when used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ACI_VALIDATE_CERTS will be used instead. The default value is true. Choices: false true
vm_provider string	The VM platform for VMM Domains. Support for Kubernetes was added in ACI v3.0. Support for CloudFoundry, OpenShift and Red Hat was added in ACI v3.1. Choices: "cloudfoundry" "kubernetes" "microsoft" "openshift" "openstack" "redhat" "vmware"
vmm_uplink_active list / elements=string	A list of active uplink IDs. The order decides the order in which active uplinks take over for a failed uplink. At least one active uplink must remain specified in the list when an active uplink was previously configured.
vmm_uplink_standby list / elements=string	A list of standby uplink IDs. At least one standby uplink must remain specified in the list when no active uplink is configured.

Notes

Note

• The tenant, ap, epg, and domain used must exist before using this module in your playbook. The cisco.aci.aci_tenant cisco.aci.aci_ap, cisco.aci.aci_epg cisco.aci.aci_domain modules can be used for this.

• OpenStack VMM domains must not be created using this module. The OpenStack VMM domain is created directly by the Cisco APIC Neutron plugin as part of the installation and configuration. This module can be used to query status of an OpenStack VMM domain.
