## Synopsis

- Allows for creation, management, and visibility into static routes within Meraki.

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
auth_key string / required |  | Authentication key provided by the dashboard. Required if environmental variable `MERAKI_KEY` is not set.
enabled boolean | Choices: no yes | Indicates whether static route is enabled within a network.
fixed_ip_assignments list |  | List of fixed MAC to IP bindings for DHCP.
| ip string |  | IP address of endpoint.
| mac string |  | MAC address of endpoint.
| name string |  | Hostname of endpoint.
gateway_ip string |  | IP address of the gateway for the subnet.
host string | Default: "api.meraki.com" | Hostname for Meraki dashboard. Can be used to access regional Meraki environments, such as China.
internal_error_retry_time integer | Default: 60 | Number of seconds to retry if server returns an internal server error.
name string |  | Descriptive name of the static route.
net_id string |  | ID number of a network.
net_name string |  | Name of a network.
org_id string |  | ID of organization.
org_name string |  | Name of organization. aliases: organization
output_format string | Choices: snakecase ← camelcase | Instructs module whether response keys should be snake case (ex. `net_id`) or camel case (ex. `netId`).
output_level string | Choices: debug normal ← | Set amount of debug output during module execution.
rate_limit_retry_time integer | Default: 165 | Number of seconds to retry if rate limiter is triggered.
reserved_ip_ranges list |  | List of IP ranges reserved for static IP assignments.
| comment string |  | Human readable description of reservation range.
| end string |  | Last IP address of reserved range.
| start string |  | First IP address of reserved range.
route_id string |  | Unique ID of static route.
state string | Choices: absent query present ← | Create or modify an organization.
subnet string |  | CIDR notation based subnet for static route.
timeout integer | Default: 30 | Time to timeout for HTTP requests.
use_https boolean | Choices: no yes ← | If `no`, it will use HTTP. Otherwise it will use HTTPS. Only useful for internal Meraki developers.
use_proxy boolean | Choices: no yes | If `no`, it will not use a proxy, even if one is defined in an environment variable on the target hosts.
validate_certs boolean | Choices: no yes ← | Whether to validate HTTP certificates.

## Notes

Note

- More information about the Meraki API can be found at https://dashboard.meraki.com/api_docs.
- Some of the options are likely only used for developers within Meraki.
- As of Ansible 2.9, Meraki modules output keys as snake case. To use camel case, set the `ANSIBLE_MERAKI_FORMAT` environment variable to `camelcase`.
- Ansible’s Meraki modules will stop supporting camel case output in Ansible 2.13. Please update your playbooks.
