This could be a layer-4 protocol (such as C(tcp), C(udp) or C(sctp). - Only flows matching the configured protocol will make use of this rule. - When C(all-other) is specified, if there are no specific ip-protocol rules that match the flow, the flow matches all the other ip-protocol rules. - When specifying rules, if this parameter is not specified, the default is C(all-other). type: str type: list state: choices: - present - absent default: present description: - When C(present), ensures the resource exists. - When C(absent), ensures the resource is removed. type: str provider: description: - A dict object containing connection details. suboptions: auth_provider: description: - Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. - This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices. type: str no_f5_teem: default: false description: - If C(yes), TEEM telemetry data is not sent to F5. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_TELEMETRY_OFF). - Previously used variable C(F5_TEEM) is deprecated as its name was confusing. type: bool password: aliases: - pass - pwd description: - The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP or the BIG-IQ. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_PASSWORD). required: true type: str server: description: - The BIG-IP host or the BIG-IQ host. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_SERVER). required: true type: str server_port: default: 443 description: - The BIG-IP server port. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_SERVER_PORT). type: int timeout: description: - 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. type: int transport: choices: - rest default: rest description: - Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device. type: str user: description: - The username to connect to the BIG-IP or the BIG-IQ. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_USER). required: true type: str validate_certs: default: true description: - If C(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 C(F5_VALIDATE_CERTS). type: bool type: dict version_added: 1.0.0 version_added_collection: f5networks.f5_modules partition: default: Common description: - Device partition to manage resources on. type: str description: description: - Specifies descriptive text that identifies the timer policy. type: str
