Synopsis

  • This module is able to configure a FortiGate or FortiOS (FOS) device by allowing the user to set and modify firewall_shaper feature and traffic_shaper category. Examples include all parameters and values need to be adjusted to datasources before usage. Tested with FOS v6.0.0

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
access_token
string
Token-based authentication. Generated from GUI of Fortigate.
enable_log
boolean
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
Enable/Disable logging for task.
firewall_shaper_traffic_shaper
dictionary
Configure shared traffic shaper.
bandwidth_unit
string
    Choices:
  • kbps
  • mbps
  • gbps
Unit of measurement for guaranteed and maximum bandwidth for this shaper (Kbps, Mbps or Gbps).
diffserv
string
    Choices:
  • enable
  • disable
Enable/disable changing the DiffServ setting applied to traffic accepted by this shaper.
diffservcode
string
DiffServ setting to be applied to traffic accepted by this shaper.
dscp_marking_method
string
    Choices:
  • multi-stage
  • static
Select DSCP marking method.
exceed_bandwidth
integer
Exceed bandwidth used for DSCP multi-stage marking. Units depend on the bandwidth-unit setting.
exceed_class_id
integer
Class ID for traffic in [guaranteed-bandwidth, maximum-bandwidth]. Source firewall.traffic-class.class-id.
exceed_dscp
string
DSCP mark for traffic in [guaranteed-bandwidth, exceed-bandwidth].
guaranteed_bandwidth
integer
Amount of bandwidth guaranteed for this shaper (0 - 16776000). Units depend on the bandwidth-unit setting.
maximum_bandwidth
integer
Upper bandwidth limit enforced by this shaper (0 - 16776000). 0 means no limit. Units depend on the bandwidth-unit setting.
maximum_dscp
string
DSCP mark for traffic in [exceed-bandwidth, maximum-bandwidth].
name
string / required
Traffic shaper name.
overhead
integer
Per-packet size overhead used in rate computations.
per_policy
string
    Choices:
  • disable
  • enable
Enable/disable applying a separate shaper for each policy. For example, if enabled the guaranteed bandwidth is applied separately for each policy.
priority
string
    Choices:
  • low
  • medium
  • high
Higher priority traffic is more likely to be forwarded without delays and without compromising the guaranteed bandwidth.
state
string / required
    Choices:
  • present
  • absent
Indicates whether to create or remove the object.
vdom
string
Default:
"root"
Virtual domain, among those defined previously. A vdom is a virtual instance of the FortiGate that can be configured and used as a different unit.
