## Synopsis

- Manage route domains on a BIG-IP.

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
bwc_policy string |  | The bandwidth controller for the route domain.
connection_limit integer |  | The maximum number of concurrent connections allowed for the route domain. Setting this to `0` turns off connection limits.
description string |  | Specifies descriptive text that identifies the route domain.
flow_eviction_policy string |  | The eviction policy to use with this route domain. Apply an eviction policy to provide customized responses to flow overflows and slow flows on the route domain.
fw_enforced_policy string added in 2.8 |  | Specifies AFM policy to be attached to route domain.
id integer |  | The unique identifying integer representing the route domain. This field is required when creating a new route domain. In version 2.5, this value is no longer used to reference a route domain when making modifications to it (for instance during update and delete operations). Instead, the `name` parameter is used. In version 2.6, the `name` value will become a required parameter.
name string added in 2.5 |  | The name of the route domain.
parent string |  | Specifies the route domain the system searches when it cannot find a route in the configured domain.
partition string added in 2.5 | Default: "Common" | Partition to create the route domain on. Partitions cannot be updated once they are created.
provider dictionary added in 2.5 |  | A dict object containing connection details.
| auth_provider string |  | Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices.
| password string / required |  | The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_PASSWORD`. aliases: pass, pwd
| server string / required |  | The BIG-IP host. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_SERVER`.
| server_port integer | Default: 443 | The BIG-IP server port. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_SERVER_PORT`.
| ssh_keyfile path |  | Specifies the SSH keyfile to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This argument is only used for cli transports. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE`.
| timeout integer |  | Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error.
| transport string | Choices: cli rest ← | Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device.
| user string / required |  | The username to connect to the BIG-IP with. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_USER`.
| validate_certs boolean | Choices: no yes ← | If `no`, SSL certificates are not validated. Use this only on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable `F5_VALIDATE_CERTS`.
routing_protocol list | Choices: none BFD BGP IS-IS OSPFv2 OSPFv3 PIM RIP RIPng | Dynamic routing protocols for the system to use in the route domain.
service_policy string |  | Service policy to associate with the route domain.
state string | Choices: present ← absent | Whether the route domain should exist or not.
strict boolean | Choices: no yes | Specifies whether the system enforces cross-routing restrictions or not.
vlans list |  | VLANs for the system to use in the route domain.

## Notes

Note

- For more information on using Ansible to manage F5 Networks devices see https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/f5.
- Requires BIG-IP software version >= 12.
- The F5 modules only manipulate the running configuration of the F5 product. To ensure that BIG-IP specific configuration persists to disk, be sure to include at least one task that uses the bigip_config module to save the running configuration. Refer to the module’s documentation for the correct usage of the module to save your running configuration.

## Examples

    - name: Create a route domain
      bigip_routedomain:
        name: foo
        id: 1234
        state: present
        provider:
          user: admin
          password: secret
          server: lb.mydomain.com
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: Set VLANs on the route domain
      bigip_routedomain:
        name: bar
        state: present
        vlans:
          - net1
          - foo
        provider:
          password: secret
          server: lb.mydomain.com
          user: admin
      delegate_to: localhost
