Ansible amtega.infoblox role

This is an Ansible role to setup host records on Infoblox NIOS.

Currently the role only reserves one ip for each vlan. If host is already provisioned, the record with the ips for each desired vlan is returned. If any vlan has no ip, 'not found' is returned in ip field.

Requirements

Python infoblox-client on the host that executes this rol/playbook. You can install with pip install infoblox-client

Role Variables

A list of all the default variables for this role is available in defaults/main.yml.

The role also setups the following facts:

• infoblox_hosts_records: list of dicts with the records added to infoblox, indicating the IP address reserved for each VLAN.
• infoblox_deleted_hosts_records: list of dicts with the records removed from infoblox

Usage

This is an example playbook:

---

- hosts: all
  roles:
    - role: amtega.infoblox
      vars:
        infoblox_hosts:
          - name: ansible_test1.acme.com
            state: present
            dns: false
            vlans:
              - vlanExample1
              - vlanExample2
          - name: ansible_test2.acme.com
            state: present
            dns: false
            vlans:
              - vlanExample1
              - vlanExample2

        infoblox_vlans:
          - name: vlanExample1
            cidr: 24
            gateway: 10.8.1.1
