ios_static_route – Manage static IP routes on Cisco IOS network devices
New in version 2.4.
Synopsis
- This module provides declarative management of static IP routes on Cisco IOS network devices.
Parameters
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
---|---|---|---|
admin_distance - | Admin distance of the static route. | ||
aggregate - | List of static route definitions. | ||
auth_pass string | Deprecated Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using connection: network_cli and become: yes with become_pass .For more information please see the IOS Platform Options guide. Specifies the password to use if required to enter privileged mode on the remote device. If authorize is false, then this argument does nothing. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_AUTH_PASS will be used instead. | ||
authorize boolean |
| Deprecated Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using connection: network_cli and become: yes .For more information please see the IOS Platform Options guide. Instructs the module to enter privileged mode on the remote device before sending any commands. If not specified, the device will attempt to execute all commands in non-privileged mode. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_AUTHORIZE will be used instead. | |
interface - added in 2.8 | Interface of the static route. | ||
mask - | Network prefix mask of the static route. | ||
name - added in 2.8 | Name of the static route aliases: description | ||
next_hop - | Next hop IP of the static route. | ||
prefix - | Network prefix of the static route. | ||
provider dictionary | Deprecated Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using connection: network_cli .For more information please see the IOS Platform Options guide. A dict object containing connection details. | ||
auth_pass string | Specifies the password to use if required to enter privileged mode on the remote device. If authorize is false, then this argument does nothing. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_AUTH_PASS will be used instead. | ||
authorize boolean |
| Instructs the module to enter privileged mode on the remote device before sending any commands. If not specified, the device will attempt to execute all commands in non-privileged mode. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_AUTHORIZE will be used instead. | |
host string / required | Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport. The value of host is used as the destination address for the transport. | ||
password string | Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD will be used instead. | ||
port integer | Default: 22 | Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device. | |
ssh_keyfile path | Specifies the SSH key to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is the path to the key used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE will be used instead. | ||
timeout integer | Default: 10 | 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. | |
username string | Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME will be used instead. | ||
state - |
| State of the static route configuration. | |
tag - added in 2.8 | Set tag of the static route. | ||
track - added in 2.8 | Tracked item to depend on for the static route. | ||
vrf - added in 2.8 | VRF of the static route. |
