partition:
    default: Common
    description:
    - Device partition to manage resources on.
    type: str

limit_type:
    choices:
    - none
    - idle
    - strict
    description:
    - When C(none), simultaneous in-flight requests and responses over TCP connections
      to a pool member are counted toward the limit. This is the historical behavior.
    - When C(idle), idle connections will be dropped as the TCP connection limit is reached.
      For short intervals, during the overlap of the idle connection being dropped and
      the new connection being established, the TCP connection limit may be exceeded.
    - When C(strict), the TCP connection limit is honored with no exceptions. This means
      that idle connections will prevent new TCP connections from being made until they
      expire, even if they could otherwise be reused.
    - C(strict) is not a recommended configuration except in very special cases with short
      expiration timeouts.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    type: str

description:
    description:
    - Description of the profile.
    type: str

maximum_age:
    description:
    - Specifies the maximum number of seconds allowed for a connection in the connection
      reuse pool.
    - For any connection with an age higher than this value, the system removes that connection
      from the re-use pool.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    type: int

share_pools:
    description:
    - Indicates connections may be shared not only within a virtual server, but also among
      similar virtual servers.
    - When C(true), all virtual servers that use the same OneConnect and other internal
      network profiles can share connections.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    type: bool

source_mask:
    description:
    - Specifies a value the system applies to the source address to determine its eligibility
      for reuse.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    - The system applies the value of this setting to the server-side source address to
      determine its eligibility for reuse.
    - A mask of C(0) causes the system to share reused connections across all source addresses.
      A host mask of C(32) causes the system to share only those reused connections originating
      from the same source address.
    - When you are using a SNAT or SNAT pool, the server-side source address is translated
      first and then the OneConnect mask is applied to the translated address.
    type: str

maximum_size:
    description:
    - Specifies the maximum number of connections the system holds in the connection reuse
      pool.
    - If the pool is already full, a server-side connection closes after the response
      is completed.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    type: int

maximum_reuse:
    description:
    - Specifies the maximum number of times that a server-side connection can be reused.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    type: int

idle_timeout_override:
    description:
    - Specifies the number of seconds a connection is idle before the connection flow
      is eligible for deletion.
    - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default is
      provided by the parent profile.
    - You may specify a number of seconds for the timeout override.
    - When C(disabled), specifies there is no timeout override for the connection.
    - When C(indefinite), specifies a connection may be idle with no timeout override.
