Synopsis

  • Manage SIP profiles on a BIG-IP system.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

community

string

When the dialog_aware is yes and the configuration requires multiple SIP virtual server-profile pairings, this string value indicates whether the pair belongs to the same SIP proxy functional group.

description

string

Description of the profile.

To remove the entry completely, set a value of .

dialog_aware

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When yes, the system gathers SIP dialog information and automatically forwards SIP messages belonging to the known SIP dialog.

enable_sip_firewall

boolean

  • no
  • yes

Specifies whether the Advanced Firewall Manager (AFM) policy is enabled.

When yes, the SIP Security settings configured in the DoS Profile in AFM apply to the virtual servers that use this profile.

insert_record_route_header

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When yes, inserts a Record-Route SIP header, which indicates the next hop for the following SIP request messages.

insert_via_header

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When yes, inserts a Via header in the forwarded SIP request.

Via headers indicate the path taken through proxy devices and transports used. The response message uses this routing information.

log_profile

string

Specifies the logging settings the publisher uses to send log messages.

The format of the name can be either be prepended by partition (/Common/foo), or specified just as an object name (foo).

To remove the entry. set a value of , however the profile log_publisher must also be set as .

log_publisher

string

Specifies the publisher defined to log messages.

Format of the name can be either be prepended by partition (/Common/foo), or specified just as an object name (foo).

To remove the entry. set a value of , however the profile log_profile must also be set as .

max_size

integer

Specifies the maximum SIP message size that the BIG-IP system accepts.

The accepted value range is 0 - 4294967295 bytes.

name

string / required

Specifies the name of the SIP profile to manage.

parent

string

Specifies the profile from which this profile inherits settings.

When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is the system-supplied sip profile.

partition

string

Default:

"Common"

Device partition to manage resources on.

provider

dictionary

added in 1.0.0 of f5networks.f5_modules

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

  • no
  • yes

If yes, TEEM telemetry data is not sent to F5.

You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_TEEM.

password

string / required

The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP.

You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_PASSWORD.


aliases: pass, pwd

server

string / required

The BIG-IP host.

You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_SERVER.

server_port

integer

Default:

443

The BIG-IP server port.

You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_SERVER_PORT.

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

  • rest

Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device.

user

string / required

The username to connect to the BIG-IP with. This user must have administrative privileges on the device.

You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_USER.

validate_certs

boolean

  • no
  • yes

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.

secure_via_header

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When checked (enabled), inserts a secure Via header in the forwarded SIP request.

A secure Via header indicates where the message originated.

This parameter causes the inserted Via header to specify Transport Layer Security. For this option to take effect, insert_via_header must be set to (yes).

security

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When yes. enables the use of enhanced Horizontal Security Layer (HSL) security checking.

state

string

  • present

  • absent

When present, ensures the profile exists.

When absent, ensures the profile is removed.

terminate_on_bye

boolean

  • no
  • yes

When yes, closes a connection when a BYE transaction finishes.

A BYE transaction is a message an application sends to another application when it is ready to close the connection between the two.

user_via_header

string

When insert_via_header is yes, specifies the Via value the system inserts as the top Via header in a SIP REQUEST message.

The valid value must include SIP protocol and sent_by settings, for example: SIP/2.0/UDP 10.10.10.10:5060.

To remove the entry completely, set a value of .



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.
