Synopsis

Add or Remove a subnet to an OpenStack network

Requirements

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

python >= 2.6
python >= 2.7
shade

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
allocation_pool_end	Default: None	From the subnet pool the last IP that should be assigned to the virtual machines.
allocation_pool_start	Default: None	From the subnet pool the starting address from which the IP should be allocated.
api_timeout		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 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 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		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		Ignored. Present for backwards compatibility
cacert		A path to a CA Cert bundle that can be used as part of verifying SSL API requests.
cert		A path to a client certificate to use as part of the SSL transaction.
cidr	Default: None	The CIDR representation of the subnet that should be assigned to the subnet. Required when state is 'present' and a subnetpool is not specified.
cloud		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_nameservers	Default: None	List of DNS nameservers for this subnet.
enable_dhcp	Default: yes	Whether DHCP should be enabled for this subnet.
gateway_ip	Default: None	The ip that would be assigned to the gateway for this subnet
host_routes	Default: None	A list of host route dictionaries for the subnet.
interface (added in 2.3)	Choices: public ← internal admin	Endpoint URL type to fetch from the service catalog. aliases: endpoint_type
ip_version	Default: 4	The IP version of the subnet 4 or 6
ipv6_address_mode	Choices: dhcpv6-stateful dhcpv6-stateless slaac Default: None	IPv6 address mode
ipv6_ra_mode	Choices: dhcpv6-stateful dhcpv6-stateless slaac Default: None	IPv6 router advertisement mode
key		A path to a client key to use as part of the SSL transaction.
name required		The name of the subnet that should be created. Although Neutron allows for non-unique subnet names, this module enforces subnet name uniqueness.
network_name		Name of the network to which the subnet should be attached Required when state is 'present'
no_gateway_ip (added in 2.2)	Default: no	The gateway IP would not be assigned for this subnet
project (added in 2.1)	Default: None	Project name or ID containing the subnet (name admin-only)
region_name		Name of the region.
state	Choices: present ← absent	Indicate desired state of the resource
timeout	Default: 180	How long should ansible wait for the requested resource.
use_default_subnetpool	Default: no	Use the default subnetpool for ip_version to obtain a CIDR.
verify	Choices: no yes	Whether or not SSL API requests should be verified. Before 2.3 this defaulted to True. aliases: validate_certs
wait	Choices: 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 os-client-config, 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 http://docs.openstack.org/developer/os-client-config

Status

This module is flagged as preview which means that it is not guaranteed to have a backwards compatible interface.
