Description

Configuration for HMAC key resource.

Inputs

    
name:
    description:
    - 'Key name.  This follows the same syntax rules as other expression entity names:'
    - '   It must begin with an alpha character (A-Z or a-z) or an underscore (_).'
    - '   The rest of the characters must be alpha, numeric (0-9) or underscores.'
    - '   It cannot be re or xp (reserved for regular and XPath expressions).'
    - '   It cannot be an expression reserved word (e.g. SYS or HTTP).'
    - '   It cannot be used for an existing expression object (HTTP callout, patset, dataset,
      stringmap, or named expression).'
    type: str

nsip:
    description:
    - The ip address of the NetScaler ADC appliance where the nitro API calls will be
      made.
    - The port can be specified with the colon (:). E.g. 192.168.1.1:555.
    required: true
    type: str

state:
    choices:
    - present
    - absent
    - unset
    default: present
    description:
    - The state of the resource being configured by the module on the NetScaler ADC node.
    - When C(present), the resource will be added/updated configured according to the
      module's parameters.
    - When C(absent), the resource will be deleted from the NetScaler ADC node.
    - When C(unset), the resource will be unset on the NetScaler ADC node.
    type: str

digest:
    choices:
    - MD2
    - MD4
    - MD5
    - SHA1
    - SHA224
    - SHA256
    - SHA384
    - SHA512
    description:
    - Digest (hash) function to be used in the HMAC computation.
    type: str

comment:
    description:
    - Comments associated with this encryption key.
    type: str

api_path:
    default: nitro/v1/config
    description:
    - Base NITRO API path.
    - Define only in case of an ADM service proxy call
    type: str

keyvalue:
    description:
    - 'The hex-encoded key to be used in the HMAC computation. The key can be any length
      (up to a Citrix ADC-imposed maximum of 255 bytes). If the length is less than the
      digest block size, it will be zero padded up to the block size. If it is greater
      than the block size, it will be hashed using the digest function to the block size.
      The block size for each digest is:'
    - '   MD2    - 16 bytes'
    - '   MD4    - 16 bytes'
    - '   MD5    - 16 bytes'
    - '   SHA1   - 20 bytes'
    - '   SHA224 - 28 bytes'
    - '   SHA256 - 32 bytes'
    - '   SHA384 - 48 bytes'
    - '   SHA512 - 64 bytes'
    - Note that the key will be encrypted when it it is saved
    - ''
    - There is a special key value AUTO which generates a new random key for the specified
      digest. This kind of key is
    - intended for use cases where the NetScaler both generates and verifies an HMAC on  the
      same data.

    description:
    - If C(true) the module will save the configuration on the NetScaler ADC node if it
      makes any changes.
    - The module will not save the configuration on the NetScaler ADC node if it made
      no changes.

nitro_protocol:
    choices:
