Note

This plugin is part of the junipernetworks.junos collection (version 1.3.0).

To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install junipernetworks.junos.

To use it in a playbook, specify: junipernetworks.junos.junos_vrf.

New in version 1.0.0: of junipernetworks.junos

Synopsis

  • This module provides declarative management of VRF definitions on Juniper JUNOS devices. It allows playbooks to manage individual or the entire VRF collection.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Requirements

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

  • ncclient (>=v0.5.2)

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
active
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Specifies whether or not the configuration is active or deactivated
aggregate
list / elements=dictionary
The set of VRF definition objects to be configured on the remote JUNOS device. Ths list entries can either be the VRF name or a hash of VRF definitions and attributes. This argument is mutually exclusive with the name argument.
active
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Specifies whether or not the configuration is active or deactivated
description
string
Provides a short description of the VRF definition in the current active configuration. The VRF definition value accepts alphanumeric characters used to provide additional information about the VRF.
interfaces
list / elements=string
Identifies the set of interfaces that should be configured in the VRF. Interfaces must be routed interfaces in order to be placed into a VRF.
name
string / required
The name of the VRF definition to be managed on the remote IOS device. The VRF definition name is an ASCII string name used to uniquely identify the VRF. This argument is mutually exclusive with the aggregate argument
rd
list / elements=string
The router-distinguisher value uniquely identifies the VRF to routing processes on the remote IOS system. The RD value takes the form of A:B where A and B are both numeric values.
state
string
    Choices:
  • present
  • absent
Configures the state of the VRF definition as it relates to the device operational configuration. When set to present, the VRF should be configured in the device active configuration and when set to absent the VRF should not be in the device active configuration
table_label
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Causes JUNOS to allocate a VPN label per VRF rather than per VPN FEC. This allows for forwarding of traffic to directly connected subnets, COS Egress filtering etc.
target
list / elements=string
It configures VRF target community configuration. The target value takes the form of target:A:B where A and B are both numeric values.
description
string
Provides a short description of the VRF definition in the current active configuration. The VRF definition value accepts alphanumeric characters used to provide additional information about the VRF.
interfaces
list / elements=string
Identifies the set of interfaces that should be configured in the VRF. Interfaces must be routed interfaces in order to be placed into a VRF.
name
string
The name of the VRF definition to be managed on the remote IOS device. The VRF definition name is an ASCII string name used to uniquely identify the VRF. This argument is mutually exclusive with the aggregate argument
provider
dictionary
Deprecated
Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using connection: network_cli or connection: netconf.
For more information please see the Junos OS Platform Options guide.
A dict object containing connection details.
host
string
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
Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device. The port value will default to the well known SSH port of 22 (for transport=cli) or port 830 (for transport=netconf) 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
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:
  • cli
  • netconf
Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device.
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.
rd
list / elements=string
The router-distinguisher value uniquely identifies the VRF to routing processes on the remote IOS system. The RD value takes the form of A:B where A and B are both numeric values.
state
string
    Choices:
  • present
  • absent
Configures the state of the VRF definition as it relates to the device operational configuration. When set to present, the VRF should be configured in the device active configuration and when set to absent the VRF should not be in the device active configuration
table_label
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Causes JUNOS to allocate a VPN label per VRF rather than per VPN FEC. This allows for forwarding of traffic to directly connected subnets, COS Egress filtering etc.
target
list / elements=string
It configures VRF target community configuration. The target value takes the form of target:A:B where A and B are both numeric values.

Notes

Note

  • This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.
  • Tested against vSRX JUNOS version 15.1X49-D15.4, vqfx-10000 JUNOS Version 15.1X53-D60.4.
  • Recommended connection is netconf. See the Junos OS Platform Options.
  • This module also works with local connections for legacy playbooks.
  • For information on using CLI and netconf see the Junos OS Platform Options guide
