selector of the retrieved fortigate facts
selectors
list / elements=string
A list of selectors. if parameter selector not specified, the module will use selectors.
sorters
list / elements=string
A list of expressions to sort the returned results.
The items of the list are in ascending order with operator ampersand.
One item itself could be in decending order with a comma inside.
vdom
string
Default:
"root"
Virtual domain, among those defined previously. A vdom is a virtual instance of the FortiGate that can be configured and used as a different unit.

Notes

Note

  • Different selector may have different parameters, users are expected to look up them for a specific selector.
  • For some selectors, the objects are global, no params are allowed to appear.
  • If params is empty a non-unique object, the whole object list is returned.
  • This module has support for all configuration API, excluding any monitor API.
  • The result of API request is stored in results as a list.
