Parameters
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
|   api_context    dictionary    |    Avi API context that includes current session ID and CSRF Token.  This allows user to perform single login and re-use the session.   |  ||
|   api_version    string    |   Default: "16.4.4"   |    Avi API version of to use for Avi API and objects.   |  |
|   async_interval    string    |    Frequency with which messages are propagated to vs mgr.  Value of 0 disables async behavior and rpc are sent inline.  Allowed values are 0-5.  Field introduced in 18.2.3.  Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by Avi Controller as 0.   |  ||
|   avi_api_patch_op    string    |   
  |    Patch operation to use when using avi_api_update_method as patch.   |  |
|   avi_api_update_method    string    |   
  |    Default method for object update is HTTP PUT.  Setting to patch will override that behavior to use HTTP PATCH.   |  |
|   avi_credentials    dictionary    |    Avi Credentials dictionary which can be used in lieu of enumerating Avi Controller login details.   |  ||
|   api_version    string    |   Default: "16.4.4"   |    Avi controller version   |  |
|   controller    string    |    Avi controller IP or SQDN   |  ||
|   csrftoken    string    |    Avi controller API csrftoken to reuse existing session with session id   |  ||
|   password    string    |    Avi controller password   |  ||
|   port    string    |    Avi controller port   |  ||
|   session_id    string    |    Avi controller API session id to reuse existing session with csrftoken   |  ||
|   tenant    string    |   Default: "admin"   |    Avi controller tenant   |  |
|   tenant_uuid    string    |    Avi controller tenant UUID   |  ||
|   timeout    string    |   Default: 300   |    Avi controller request timeout   |  |
|   token    string    |    Avi controller API token   |  ||
|   username    string    |    Avi controller username   |  ||
|   avi_disable_session_cache_as_fact    boolean    |   
  |    It disables avi session information to be cached as a fact.   |  |
|   clear_on_max_retries    string    |    Max retries after which the remote site is treated as a fresh start.  In fresh start all the configs are downloaded.  Allowed values are 1-1024.  Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by Avi Controller as 20.   |  ||
|   client_ip_addr_group    string    |    Group to specify if the client ip addresses are public or private.  Field introduced in 17.1.2.   |  ||
|   controller    string    |   Default: ""   |    IP address or hostname of the controller. The default value is the environment variable   AVI_CONTROLLER. |  |
|   description    string    |    User defined description for the object.   |  ||
|   dns_configs    string    |    Sub domain configuration for the gslb.  Gslb service's fqdn must be a match one of these subdomains.   |  ||
|   is_federated    boolean    |   
  |    This field indicates that this object is replicated across gslb federation.  Field introduced in 17.1.3.  Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by Avi Controller as True.   |  |
|   leader_cluster_uuid    string / required    |    Mark this site as leader of gslb configuration.  This site is the one among the avi sites.   |  ||
|   maintenance_mode    boolean    |   
  |    This field disables the configuration operations on the leader for all federated objects.  Cud operations on gslb, gslbservice, gslbgeodbprofile and other federated objects will be rejected.  The rest-api disabling helps in upgrade scenarios where we don't want configuration sync operations to the gslb member when the member is being  upgraded.  This configuration programmatically blocks the leader from accepting new gslb configuration when member sites are undergoing upgrade.  Field introduced in 17.2.1.  Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by Avi Controller as False.   |  |
|   name    string / required    |    Name for the gslb object.   |  ||
|   password    string    |   Default: ""   |    Password of Avi user in Avi controller. The default value is the environment variable   AVI_PASSWORD. |  |
|   send_interval    string    |    Frequency with which group members communicate.  Allowed values are 1-3600.  Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by Avi Controller as 15.   |  ||
|   send_interval_prior_to_maintenance_mode    string    |    The user can specify a send-interval while entering maintenance mode.  The validity of this 'maintenance send-interval' is only during maintenance mode.  When the user leaves maintenance mode, the original send-interval is reinstated.  This internal variable is used to store the original send-interval.  Field introduced in 18.2.3.   |  ||
|   sites    string    |    Select avi site member belonging to this gslb.   |  ||
|   state    string    |   
  |    The state that should be applied on the entity.   |  |
|   tenant    string    |   Default: "admin"   |    Name of tenant used for all Avi API calls and context of object.   |  |
|   tenant_ref    string    |    It is a reference to an object of type tenant.   |  ||
|   tenant_uuid    string    |   Default: ""   |    UUID of tenant used for all Avi API calls and context of object.   |  |
|   third_party_sites    string    |    Third party site member belonging to this gslb.  Field introduced in 17.1.1.   |  ||
|   url    string    |    Avi controller URL of the object.   |  ||
|   username    string    |   Default: ""   |    Username used for accessing Avi controller. The default value is the environment variable   AVI_USERNAME. |  |
|   uuid    string    |    Uuid of the gslb object.   |  ||
|   view_id    string    |    The view-id is used in change-leader mode to differentiate partitioned groups while they have the same gslb namespace.  Each partitioned group will be able to operate independently by using the view-id.  Default value when not specified in API or module is interpreted by Avi Controller as 0.   |  ||
