## Synopsis

- Create and delete VLAN IP range.

## Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

- python >= 2.6
- cs >= 0.6.10

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
account string |  | Account who owns the VLAN. Mutually exclusive with project.
api_http_method string | Choices: get post | HTTP method used to query the API endpoint. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is `get` if not specified.
api_key string |  | API key of the CloudStack API. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_KEY` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_region string | Default: "cloudstack" | Name of the ini section in the `cloustack.ini` file. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_REGION` env variable is considered.
api_secret string |  | Secret key of the CloudStack API. If not set, the `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_timeout integer |  | HTTP timeout in seconds. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is 10 seconds if not specified.
api_url string |  | URL of the CloudStack API e.g. https://cloud.example.com/client/api. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
cidr_ipv6 string |  | The CIDR of IPv6 network, must be at least /64.
domain string |  | Domain of the account owning the VLAN.
end_ip string |  | The ending IPv4 address in the VLAN IP range. If not specified, value of start_ip is used. Only considered on create.
end_ipv6 string |  | The ending IPv6 address in the IPv6 network range. If not specified, value of start_ipv6 is used. Only considered on create.
for_virtual_network boolean | Choices: no ← yes | `yes` if VLAN is of Virtual type, `no` if Direct. If set to `yes` but neither physical_network or network is set CloudStack will try to add the VLAN range to the Physical Network with a Public traffic type.
gateway string |  | The gateway of the VLAN IP range. Required if state=present.
gateway_ipv6 string |  | The gateway of the IPv6 network. Only considered on create.
netmask string |  | The netmask of the VLAN IP range. Required if state=present.
network string |  | The network name or id. Required if for_virtual_network and physical_network are not set.
physical_network string |  | The physical network name or id.
project string |  | Project who owns the VLAN. Mutually exclusive with account.
start_ip string / required |  | The beginning IPv4 address in the VLAN IP range. Only considered on create.
start_ipv6 string |  | The beginning IPv6 address in the IPv6 network range. Only considered on create.
state string | Choices: present ← absent | State of the network ip range.
vlan string |  | The ID or VID of the network. If not specified, will be defaulted to the vlan of the network.
zone string |  | The Zone ID of the VLAN IP range. If not set, default zone is used.

## Notes

Note

- Ansible uses the `cs` library’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the arguments `api_url`, `api_key`, `api_secret`. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. The `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT`, `CLOUDSTACK_KEY`, `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` and `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD`. `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` environment variables. A `CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG` environment variable pointing to an `.ini` file. A `cloudstack.ini` file in the current working directory. A `.cloudstack.ini` file in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections in `cloudstack.ini`. Use the argument `api_region` to select the section name, default section is `cloudstack`. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information.
- A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.
- This module supports check mode.

## Examples

    - name: create a VLAN IP range for network test
      cs_vlan_ip_range:
        network: test
        vlan: 98
        start_ip: 10.2.4.10
        end_ip: 10.2.4.100
        gateway: 10.2.4.1
        netmask: 255.255.255.0
        zone: zone-02
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: remove a VLAN IP range for network test
      cs_vlan_ip_range:
        state: absent
        network: test
        start_ip: 10.2.4.10
        end_ip: 10.2.4.100
        zone: zone-02
      delegate_to: localhost
