ttl: description: - Configures the TTL to be associated with this host record name: description: - Specifies the fully qualified hostname to add or remove from the system. User can also update the hostname as it is possible to pass a dict containing I(new_name), I(old_name). See examples. required: true view: aliases: - dns_view default: default description: - Sets the DNS view to associate this host record with. The DNS view must already be configured on the system required: true state: choices: - present - absent default: present description: - Configures the intended state of the instance of the object on the NIOS server. When this value is set to C(present), the object is configured on the device and when this value is set to C(absent) the value is removed (if necessary) from the device. aliases: description: - Configures an optional list of additional aliases to add to the host record. These are equivalent to CNAMEs but held within a host record. Must be in list format. version_added: '2.6' version_added_collection: ansible.builtin comment: description: - Configures a text string comment to be associated with the instance of this object. The provided text string will be configured on the object instance. extattrs: description: - Allows for the configuration of Extensible Attributes on the instance of the object. This argument accepts a set of key / value pairs for configuration. provider: description: - A dict object containing connection details. suboptions: host: description: - Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote instance of NIOS WAPI over REST - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_HOST) environment variable. type: str http_request_timeout: default: 10 description: - The amount of time before to wait before receiving a response - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_HTTP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT) environment variable. type: int max_results: default: 1000 description: - Specifies the maximum number of objects to be returned, if set to a negative number the appliance will return an error when the number of returned objects would exceed the setting. - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_MAX_RESULTS) environment variable. type: int max_retries: default: 3 description: - Configures the number of attempted retries before the connection is declared usable - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_MAX_RETRIES) environment variable. type: int password: description: - Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote instance of NIOS. - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_PASSWORD) environment variable. type: str username: description: - Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote instance of NIOS. - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_USERNAME) environment variable. type: str validate_certs: aliases: - ssl_verify default: false description: - Boolean value to enable or disable verifying SSL certificates - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_SSL_VERIFY) environment variable. type: bool wapi_version: default: '2.1' description: - Specifies the version of WAPI to use - Value can also be specified using C(INFOBLOX_WAP_VERSION) environment variable. - Until ansible 2.8 the default WAPI was 1.4 type: str type: dict ipv4addrs: aliases: - ipv4 description: - Configures the IPv4 addresses for this host record. This argument accepts a list of values (see suboptions) suboptions: configure_for_dhcp: aliases: - dhcp description: - Configure the host_record over DHCP instead of DNS, if user changes it to true, user need to mention MAC address to configure required: false ipv4addr: aliases: - address description: - Configures the IPv4 address for the host record. Users can dynamically allocate ipv4 address to host record by passing dictionary containing, I(nios_next_ip) and I(CIDR network range). See example required: true mac: aliases: - mac description: - Configures the hardware MAC address for the host record. If user makes DHCP to true, user need to mention MAC address. required: false ipv6addrs: aliases: - ipv6 description: - Configures the IPv6 addresses for the host record. This argument accepts a list of values (see options) suboptions: configure_for_dhcp: aliases: - dhcp description: - Configure the host_record over DHCP instead of DNS, if user changes it to true, user need to mention MAC address to configure required: false ipv6addr: aliases: - address description: - Configures the IPv6 address for the host record required: true configure_for_dns: aliases: - dns default: true description: - Sets the DNS to particular parent. If user needs to bypass DNS user can make the value to false. required: false type: bool version_added: '2.7' version_added_collection: ansible.builtin
