Description

Configuration for NTP server resource.

Inputs

    
key:
    description:
    - Key to use for encrypting authentication fields. All packets sent to and received
      from the server must include authentication fields encrypted by using this key.
      To require authentication for communication with the server, you must set either
      the value of this parameter or the autokey parameter.
    type: float

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

autokey:
    description:
    - Use the Autokey protocol for key management for this server, with the cryptographic
      values (for example, symmetric key, host and public certificate files, and sign
      key) generated by the ntp-keygen utility. To require authentication for communication
      with the server, you must set either the value of this parameter or the key parameter.
    type: bool

maxpoll:
    description:
    - Maximum time after which the NTP server must poll the NTP messages. In seconds,
      expressed as a power of 2.
    type: float

minpoll:
    description:
    - Minimum time after which the NTP server must poll the NTP messages. In seconds,
      expressed as a power of 2.
    type: float

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

serverip:
    description:
    - IP address of the NTP server.
    type: str

nitro_pass:
    description:
    - The password with which to authenticate to the NetScaler ADC node.
    required: false
    type: str

nitro_user:
    description:
    - The username with which to authenticate to the NetScaler ADC node.
    required: false
    type: str

servername:
    description:
    - Fully qualified domain name of the NTP server.
    type: str

save_config:
    default: false
    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.
    type: bool

nitro_protocol:
    choices:
    - http
    - https
    default: https
    description:
    - Which protocol to use when accessing the nitro API objects.
    type: str

validate_certs:
    default: true
