| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
| certificate string | Specifies the name of the certificate that the system uses for server-side SSL processing. | ||
| chain string | Specifies the certificates-key chain to associate with the SSL profile. | ||
| ciphers string | Specifies the list of ciphers that the system supports. When creating a new profile, the default cipher list is provided by the parent profile. | ||
| key string | Specifies the file name of the SSL key. | ||
| name string / required | Specifies the name of the profile. | ||
| ocsp_profile string | Specifies the name of the OCSP profile for purpose of validating status of server certificate. | ||
| parent string | Default: "/Common/serverssl" | The parent template of this monitor template. Once this value has been set, it cannot be changed. | |
| partition string | Default: "Common" | Device partition to manage resources on. | |
| passphrase string | Specifies a passphrase used to encrypt the key. | ||
| 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 |
| 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 |
| 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. | |
| secure_renegotiation string |
| Specifies the method of secure renegotiations for SSL connections. When creating a new profile, the setting is provided by the parent profile. When request is set the system request secure renegotation of SSL connections.require is a default setting and when set the system permits initial SSL handshakes from clients but terminates renegotiations from unpatched clients.The require-strict setting the system requires strict renegotiation of SSL connections. In this mode the system refuses connections to insecure servers, and terminates existing SSL connections to insecure servers. | |
| server_certificate string |
| Specifies the way the system handles server certificates. When ignore, specifies that the system ignores certificates from server systems.When require, specifies that the system requires a server to present a valid certificate. | |
| server_name string | Specifies the fully qualified DNS hostname of the server used in Server Name Indication communications. When creating a new profile, the setting is provided by the parent profile. | ||
| sni_default boolean |
| Indicates that the system uses this profile as the default SSL profile when there is no match to the server name, or when the client provides no SNI extension support. When creating a new profile, the setting is provided by the parent profile. There can be only one SSL profile with this setting enabled. | |
| sni_require boolean |
| Requires that the network peers also provide SNI support, setting only takes effect when sni_default is yes.When creating a new profile, the setting is provided by the parent profile. | |
| state string |
| When present, ensures that the profile exists.When absent, ensures the profile is removed. | |
| update_password string |
| always will allow to update passwords if the user chooses to do so. on_create will only set the password for newly created profiles. | |
