An ansible role for managing and providing advanced configuration of UBNT EdgeMAX and UniFI network devices.

ubnt_platform_mgmt - UBNT Platform Management Ansible Roll

An ansible role for managing and providing advanced configuration of UBNT EdgeMAX and UniFI Network Devices.

Description

After doing some research I realized there's a bunch fo scattered material for automating management and taking advantage of the functionatly of these great network devices. The goal is to consolidate that information and simplify the extension of the core platform to enable things like LetsEncrypt, Easy OpenVPN Connectivity, OSPF, MPLS and Other Advanced Configures.

Features

A list features based on the research included here I'm hoping to implement.

Feature Ansible UniFI CloudKey USG4P USG EdgeRouterX
unifi_controller_facts ansible library *
Install SSH Keys ansible role untested tested tested tested
SSH No Passwd Auth task
LetsEncrypt task
Get EdgeSwitch Config template n/a n/a n/a untested
AWS Route53 DNS Update task Untested n/a n/a n/a

Requirements

Role Variables

Install SSH Authorized Keys

Provide the location for the SSH keys that will be installed for SSH key based authentication to the ubnt device.

ubnt_ssh_authorized_key: ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

AWS Route53 DNS Update

AWS Credentials and additional information needed for updating Route53 information. This is currently untested.

Example Variables:

aws_access_key_id: < AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID >
aws_secret_access_key: < AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY >
aws_route53_domain: pouliot.net
aws_route53_network: 192.168.1.0/24
aws_route53_syslog_facility: local7
aws_route53_exclude_host: nothisone.pouliot.net

Get EdgeSwitch Config

Script template to get ERX config.
