Synopsis

• Manage External Subnet objects (l3extSubnet:extsubnet)

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
certificate_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. aliases: cert_name
description string		Description for the External Subnet. aliases: descr
extepg string / required		Name of an existing ExtEpg. aliases: extepg_name
host string / required		IP Address or hostname of APIC resolvable by Ansible control host. aliases: hostname
l3out string / required		Name of an existing L3Out. aliases: l3out_name
network string / required		The network address for the Subnet. aliases: address, ip
output_level string	debug info normal ←	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
password string / required		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.
port integer		Port number to be used for REST connection. The default value depends on parameter use_ssl.
private_key string / required		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. aliases: cert_key
scope list	export-rtctrl import-security shared-rtctrl shared-security	Determines the scope of the Subnet. The export-rtctrl option controls which external networks are advertised out of the fabric using route-maps and IP prefix-lists. The import-security option classifies for the external EPG. The rules and contracts defined in this external EPG apply to networks matching this subnet. The shared-rtctrl option controls which external prefixes are advertised to other tenants for shared services. The shared-security option configures the classifier for the subnets in the VRF where the routes are leaked. The APIC defaults to import-security when unset during creation.
state string	absent present ← query	Use present or absent for adding or removing. Use query for listing an object or multiple objects.
subnet_name string		Name of External Subnet being created. aliases: name
tenant string / required		Name of an existing tenant. aliases: tenant_name
timeout integer	Default: 30	The socket level timeout in seconds.
use_proxy boolean	no yes ←	If no, it will not use a proxy, even if one is defined in an environment variable on the target hosts.
use_ssl boolean	no yes ←	If no, an HTTP connection will be used instead of the default HTTPS connection.
username string	Default: "admin"	The username to use for authentication. aliases: user
validate_certs boolean	no yes ←	If no, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only set to no when used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.

Notes

Note

• The tenant and domain and vrf used must exist before using this module in your playbook. The aci_tenant and aci_domain and aci_vrf modules can be used for this.
