Synopsis

Allows for configuration of management interfaces on Meraki MX, MS, and MR devices.

Parameters

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
auth_key string / required			Authentication key provided by the dashboard. Required if environmental variable `MERAKI_KEY` is not set.
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.
net_id string			ID of the network to bind or unbind configuration template to.
net_name string			Name of the network to bind or unbind configuration template to.
org_id string			ID of organization associated to a configuration template.
org_name string			Name of organization containing the configuration template. 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.
serial string / required			serial number of the device to configure.
state string		Choices: absent query ← present	Specifies whether configuration template information should be queried, modified, or deleted.
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.
wan1 dictionary			Management interface details for management interface. aliases: mgmt1
	static_dns list / elements=string		DNS servers to use. Allows for a maximum of 2 addresses.
	static_gateway_ip string		IP address for default gateway. Valid only if `using_static_ip` is `True`.
	static_ip string		IP address assigned to Management interface. Valid only if `using_static_ip` is `True`.
	static_subnet_mask string		Netmask for static IP address. Valid only if `using_static_ip` is `True`.
	using_static_ip boolean	Choices: no yes	Configures the interface to use static IP or DHCP.
	vlan integer		VLAN number to use for the management network.
	wan_enabled string	Choices: disabled enabled not configured	States whether the management interface is enabled. Only valid for MX devices.
wan2 dictionary			Management interface details for management interface. aliases: mgmt2
	static_dns list / elements=string		DNS servers to use. Allows for a maximum of 2 addresses.
	static_gateway_ip string		IP address for default gateway. Valid only if `using_static_ip` is `True`.
	static_ip string		IP address assigned to Management interface. Valid only if `using_static_ip` is `True`.
	static_subnet_mask string		Netmask for static IP address. Valid only if `using_static_ip` is `True`.
	using_static_ip boolean	Choices: no yes	Configures the interface to use static IP or DHCP.
	vlan integer		VLAN number to use for the management network.
	wan_enabled string	Choices: disabled enabled not configured	States whether the management interface is enabled. Only valid for MX devices.

Notes

Note

WAN2 parameter is only valid for MX appliances.
wan_enabled should not be provided for non-MX devies.
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.
Check Mode downloads the current configuration from the dashboard, then compares changes against this download. Check Mode will report changed if there are differences in the configurations, but does not submit changes to the API for validation of change.
