ansible-infoblox

Awesome infobox module for ansible

Dependencies

• Python "requests <= 2.16.0" module is required

sudo pip install requests

Extensible Attributes

Extensible attributes are supported in this client. It should be noted that in WAPI versions before 1.2, the field is named "extensible_attributes", whereas in version 1.2 and later, it is named "extattrs".

Infoblox Version Compatibility

This gem is known to be compatible with Infoblox versions 1.0 through 2.3. While Infoblox claims that their API is backwards-compatible, one caveat remains with the Extensible Attributes (see elsewhere in this document). Some features are only available in newer versions (such as FixedAddress and AAAARecord).

Usage

Actions

• get_network [network]
• get_ipv6network [network]
• get_range [start_addr, end_addr]
• get_next_available_ip [network] | [start_addr, end_addr]
• get_host [hostname]
• add_host [hostname, network] | [hostname, start_addr, end_addr]
• add_ipv6host [hostname, network]
• delete_host [hostname]
• set_extattr [hostname, attirbule name, attribute value]
• get_a_record [name]
• set_a_record [name, address | addresses, ttl=None] (this will change existing records if they exist)
• delete_a_record [name]

Networks vs Ranges

get_next_available_ip and add_host can be used in either a Network or a Range on the Infoblox environment. Use the network parameter in the 192.168.1.0/24 or 192.168.1.0 format to reference a Network. Use the start_addr and end_addr parameters in the 192.168.0.1 format to reference a Range.
