Synopsis

Manages BIG-IQ applications used for load balancing an HTTPS application on port 443 with a Web Application Firewall (WAF) using an ASM (Application Security Manager) Rapid Deployment policy.

Parameters

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
add_analytics boolean			Choices: no ← yes	Collects statistics of the BIG-IP that the application is deployed to. This parameter is only relevant when specifying a `service_environment` which is a BIG-IP; not an SSG.
client_ssl_profile dictionary				Specifies the SSL profile for managing client-side SSL traffic.
	cert_key_chain raw			One or more certificates and keys to associate with the SSL profile. This option is always a list. The keys in the list dictate the details of the client/key/chain/passphrase combination. BIG-IPs can only have one of each type of each certificate/key type. This means you can only have one RSA, one DSA, and one ECDSA per profile. If you attempt to assign two RSA, DSA, or ECDSA certificate/key combo, the device rejects it. This list is a complex list that specifies a number of keys. When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default value is `inherit`.
		cert string		Specifies a cert name for use.
		chain string		Specifies a certificate chain that is relevant to the certificate and key. This key is optional.
		key string		Specifies a key name.
		passphrase string		Contains the passphrase of the key file, should it require one. Passphrases are encrypted on the remote BIG-IP device.
	name string		Default: "clientssl"	The name of the client SSL profile to created and used. When creating a new application, if this value is not specified, the default value of `clientssl` will be used.
description string				Description of the application.
domain_names list / elements=string				Specifies host names that are used to access the web application that this security policy protects. When creating a new application, this parameter is required.
inbound_virtual dictionary				Settings to configure the virtual which receives the inbound connection. This virtual is used to host the HTTPS endpoint of the application. Traffic destined to the `redirect_virtual` is offloaded to this parameter to ensure proper redirection from insecure to secure occurs.
	address string / required			Specifies destination IP address information to which the virtual server sends traffic. This parameter is required when creating a new application.
	netmask string / required			Specifies the netmask to associate with the given `destination`. This parameter is required when creating a new application.
	port string		Default: 443	The port on which the virtual listens for connections. When creating a new application, if this parameter is not specified, the default value is `443`.
name string / required				Name of the new application.
provider dictionary added in 1.0.0 of f5networks.f5_modules				A dict object containing connection details.
	auth_provider string			Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices.
	no_f5_teem boolean		Choices: no yes	If `yes`, TEEM telemetry data is not sent to F5. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_TEEM`.
	password string / required			The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_PASSWORD`. aliases: pass, pwd
	server string / required			The BIG-IP host. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_SERVER`.
	server_port integer		Default: 443	The BIG-IP server port. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_SERVER_PORT`.
	timeout integer			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.
	transport string		Choices: rest ←	Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device.
	user string / required			The username to connect to the BIG-IP with. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_USER`.
	validate_certs boolean		Choices: no yes ←	If `no`, SSL certificates are not validated. Use this only on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_VALIDATE_CERTS`.
redirect_virtual dictionary				Settings to configure the virtual which receives the connection to be redirected. This virtual is used to host the HTTP endpoint of the application. Traffic destined to this parameter is offloaded to the `inbound_virtual` parameter to ensure proper redirection from insecure to secure occurs.
	address string / required			Specifies destination IP address information to which the virtual server sends traffic. This parameter is required when creating a new application.
	netmask string / required			Specifies the netmask to associate with the given `destination`. This parameter is required when creating a new application.
	port string		Default: 80	The port on which the virtual listens for connections. When creating a new application, if this parameter is not specified, the default value of `80` will be used.
servers list / elements=dictionary				A list of servers on which the application is hosted. If you are familiar with other BIG-IP settings, you might also refer to this list as the list of pool members. When creating a new application, at least one server is required.
	address string / required			The IP address of the server.
	port string		Default: 80	The port of the server.
service_environment string				Specifies the name of service environment the application will be deployed to. When creating a new application, this parameter is required.
state string			Choices: absent present ←	The state of the resource on the system. When `present`, guarantees the resource exists with the provided attributes. When `absent`, removes the resource from the system.
wait boolean			Choices: no yes ←	If the module should wait for the application to be created, deleted, or updated.

Notes

Note

This module does not work on BIG-IQ version 6.1.x or greater.
For more information on using Ansible to manage F5 Networks devices see https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/f5.
Requires BIG-IP software version >= 12.
The F5 modules only manipulate the running configuration of the F5 product. To ensure that BIG-IP specific configuration persists to disk, be sure to include at least one task that uses the f5networks.f5_modules.bigip_config module to save the running configuration. Refer to the module’s documentation for the correct usage of the module to save your running configuration.
