sros_config - Manage Nokia SR OS device configuration
New in version 2.2.
Synopsis
- Nokia SR OS configurations use a simple block indent file syntax for segmenting configuration into sections. This module provides an implementation for working with SR OS configuration sections in a deterministic way.
Options
parameter | required | default | choices | comments | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
after | no | The ordered set of commands to append to the end of the command stack if a change needs to be made. Just like with before this allows the playbook designer to append a set of commands to be executed after the command set. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
backup (added in 2.2)
| no |
| This argument will cause the module to create a full backup of the current running-config from the remote device before any changes are made. The backup file is written to the backup folder in the playbook root directory. If the directory does not exist, it is created. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
before | no | The ordered set of commands to push on to the command stack if a change needs to be made. This allows the playbook designer the opportunity to perform configuration commands prior to pushing any changes without affecting how the set of commands are matched against the system. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
config (added in 2.2)
| no | The config argument allows the playbook designer to supply the base configuration to be used to validate configuration changes necessary. If this argument is provided, the module will not download the running-config from the remote node. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
defaults (added in 2.2)
| no |
| This argument specifies whether or not to collect all defaults when getting the remote device running config. When enabled, the module will get the current config by issuing the command show running-config all .aliases: detail | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
force (added in 2.2)
| no |
| The force argument instructs the module to not consider the current devices running-config. When set to true, this will cause the module to push the contents of src into the device without first checking if already configured. Note this argument should be considered deprecated. To achieve the equivalent, set the match=none which is idempotent. This argument will be removed in a future release. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
lines | no | The ordered set of commands that should be configured in the section. The commands must be the exact same commands as found in the device running-config. Be sure to note the configuration command syntax as some commands are automatically modified by the device config parser. The lines argument only supports current context lines. See EXAMPLES aliases: commands | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
match | no | line |
| Instructs the module on the way to perform the matching of the set of commands against the current device config. If match is set to line, commands are matched line by line. If match is set to strict, command lines are matched with respect to position. If match is set to exact, command lines must be an equal match. Finally, if match is set to none, the module will not attempt to compare the source configuration with the running configuration on the remote device. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
parents | no | The ordered set of parents that uniquely identify the section the commands should be checked against. If the parents argument is omitted, the commands are checked against the set of top level or global commands. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
provider | no | A dict object containing connection details. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
replace | no | line |
| Instructs the module on the way to perform the configuration on the device. If the replace argument is set to line then the modified lines are pushed to the device in configuration mode. If the replace argument is set to block then the entire command block is pushed to the device in configuration mode if any line is not correct. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
save (added in 2.2)
| no |
| The save argument instructs the module to save the running- config to the startup-config at the conclusion of the module running. If check mode is specified, this argument is ignored. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
src (added in 2.2)
| no | Specifies the source path to the file that contains the configuration or configuration template to load. The path to the source file can either be the full path on the Ansible control host or a relative path from the playbook or role root directory. This argument is mutually exclusive with lines. |
Examples
# Note: examples below use the following provider dict to handle # transport and authentication to the node. --- vars: cli: host: "{{ inventory_hostname }}" username: admin password: admin transport: cli --- - name: enable rollback location sros_config: lines: configure system rollback rollback-location "cf3:/ansible" provider: "{{ cli }}" - name: set system name to {{ inventory_hostname }} using one line sros_config: lines: - configure system name "{{ inventory_hostname }}" provider: "{{ cli }}" - name: set system name to {{ inventory_hostname }} using parents sros_config: lines: - 'name "{{ inventory_hostname }}"' parents: - configure - system provider: "{{ cli }}" backup: yes - name: load config from file sros_config: src: "{{ inventory_hostname }}.cfg" provider: "{{ cli }}" save: yes - name: invalid use of lines sros_config: lines: - service - vpls 1000 customer foo 1 create - description "invalid lines example" provider: "{{ cli }}" - name: valid use of lines sros_config: lines: - description "invalid lines example" parents: - service - vpls 1000 customer foo 1 create provider: "{{ cli }}"
Return Values
Common return values are documented here Return Values, the following are the fields unique to this module:
