Requirements

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

python >= 2.6
cs >= 0.6.10

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
account		Account the network is related to.
acl (added in 2.5)		The name of the access control list for the VPC network tier.
acl_type	Choices: account ← domain	Access control type for the VPC network tier. Only considered on create.
api_http_method	Choices: get post	HTTP method used to query the API endpoint. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is `get` if not specified.
api_key		API key of the CloudStack API. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_KEY` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_region	Default: cloudstack	Name of the ini section in the `cloustack.ini` file. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_REGION` env variable is considered.
api_secret		Secret key of the CloudStack API. If not set, the `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_timeout		HTTP timeout in seconds. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is 10 seconds if not specified.
api_url		URL of the CloudStack API e.g. https://cloud.example.com/client/api. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
cidr_ipv6		CIDR of IPv6 network, must be at least /64. Only considered on create.
clean_up	Choices: no ← yes	Cleanup old network elements. Only considered on `state=restarted`.
display_text		Display text of the network. If not specified, `name` will be used as `display_text`.
domain		Domain the network is related to.
end_ip		The ending IPv4 address of the network belongs to. If not specified, value of `start_ip` is used. Only considered on create.
end_ipv6		The ending IPv6 address of the network belongs to. If not specified, value of `start_ipv6` is used. Only considered on create.
gateway		The gateway of the network. Required for shared networks and isolated networks when it belongs to a VPC. Only considered on create.
gateway_ipv6		The gateway of the IPv6 network. Required for shared networks. Only considered on create.
isolated_pvlan		The isolated private VLAN for this network.
name required		Name (case sensitive) of the network.
netmask		The netmask of the network. Required for shared networks and isolated networks when it belongs to a VPC. Only considered on create.
network_domain		The network domain.
network_offering		Name of the offering for the network. Required if `state=present`.
poll_async	Choices: no yes ←	Poll async jobs until job has finished.
project		Name of the project the network to be deployed in.
start_ip		The beginning IPv4 address of the network belongs to. Only considered on create.
start_ipv6		The beginning IPv6 address of the network belongs to. Only considered on create.
state	Choices: present ← absent restarted	State of the network.
subdomain_access (added in 2.5)	Choices: no yes	Defines whether to allow subdomains to use networks dedicated to their parent domain(s). Should be used with `acl_type=domain`. Only considered on create.
vlan		The ID or VID of the network.
vpc		Name of the VPC of the network.
zone		Name of the zone in which the network should be deployed. If not set, default zone is used.

Notes

Note

Ansible uses the cs library’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the arguments api_url, api_key, api_secret. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. The CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT, CLOUDSTACK_KEY, CLOUDSTACK_SECRET and CLOUDSTACK_METHOD. CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT environment variables. A CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG environment variable pointing to an .ini file. A cloudstack.ini file in the current working directory. A .cloudstack.ini file in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections in cloudstack.ini. Use the argument api_region to select the section name, default section is cloudstack. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information.
A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.
This module supports check mode.
