openstack.cloud.network – Creates/removes networks from OpenStack

Note

This plugin is part of the openstack.cloud collection (version 1.2.1).

To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install openstack.cloud.

To use it in a playbook, specify: openstack.cloud.network.


Synopsis

  • Add or remove network from OpenStack.

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • openstacksdk
  • openstacksdk >= 0.12.0
  • python >= 3.6

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

admin_state_up

boolean

  • no
  • yes

Whether the state should be marked as up or down.

api_timeout

integer

How long should the socket layer wait before timing out for API calls. If this is omitted, nothing will be passed to the requests library.

auth

dictionary

Dictionary containing auth information as needed by the cloud's auth plugin strategy. For the default password plugin, this would contain auth_url, username, password, project_name and any information about domains (for example, user_domain_name or project_domain_name) if the cloud supports them. For other plugins, this param will need to contain whatever parameters that auth plugin requires. This parameter is not needed if a named cloud is provided or OpenStack OS_* environment variables are present.

auth_type

string

Name of the auth plugin to use. If the cloud uses something other than password authentication, the name of the plugin should be indicated here and the contents of the auth parameter should be updated accordingly.

availability_zone

string

Ignored. Present for backwards compatibility

ca_cert

string

A path to a CA Cert bundle that can be used as part of verifying SSL API requests.


aliases: cacert

client_cert

string

A path to a client certificate to use as part of the SSL transaction.


aliases: cert

client_key

string

A path to a client key to use as part of the SSL transaction.


aliases: key

cloud

raw

Named cloud or cloud config to operate against. If cloud is a string, it references a named cloud config as defined in an OpenStack clouds.yaml file. Provides default values for auth and auth_type. This parameter is not needed if auth is provided or if OpenStack OS_* environment variables are present. If cloud is a dict, it contains a complete cloud configuration like would be in a section of clouds.yaml.

dns_domain

string

The DNS domain value to set. Requires openstacksdk>=0.29. Network will use Openstack defaults if this option is not provided.

external

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Whether this network is externally accessible.

interface

string

  • admin
  • internal
  • public

Endpoint URL type to fetch from the service catalog.


aliases: endpoint_type

mtu_size

integer

The maximum transmission unit (MTU) value to address fragmentation. Network will use OpenStack defaults if this option is not provided. Requires openstacksdk>=0.18.


aliases: mtu

name

string / required

Name to be assigned to the network.

port_security_enabled

boolean

  • no
  • yes

Whether port security is enabled on the network or not. Network will use OpenStack defaults if this option is not utilised. Requires openstacksdk>=0.18.

project

string

Project name or ID containing the network (name admin-only)

provider_network_type

string

The type of physical network that maps to this network resource.

provider_physical_network

string

The physical network where this network object is implemented.

provider_segmentation_id

integer

An isolated segment on the physical network. The network_type attribute defines the segmentation model. For example, if the network_type value is vlan, this ID is a vlan identifier. If the network_type value is gre, this ID is a gre key.

region_name

string

Name of the region.

shared

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Whether this network is shared or not.

state

string

  • present

  • absent

Indicate desired state of the resource.

timeout

integer

Default:

180

How long should ansible wait for the requested resource.

validate_certs

boolean

  • no

  • yes

Whether or not SSL API requests should be verified.

Before Ansible 2.3 this defaulted to yes.


aliases: verify

wait

boolean

  • no
  • yes

Should ansible wait until the requested resource is complete.



Notes

Note

  • The standard OpenStack environment variables, such as OS_USERNAME may be used instead of providing explicit values.
  • Auth information is driven by openstacksdk, which means that values can come from a yaml config file in /etc/ansible/openstack.yaml, /etc/openstack/clouds.yaml or ~/.config/openstack/clouds.yaml, then from standard environment variables, then finally by explicit parameters in plays. More information can be found at https://docs.openstack.org/openstacksdk/
