cl_bond - Configures a bond port on Cumulus Linux
New in version 2.1.
DEPRECATED
| Removed in Ansible: | |
|---|---|
| version: 2.5 | |
| Why: | The nclu module is designed to be easier to use for individuals who are new to Cumulus Linux by exposing the NCLU interface in an automatable way. |
| Alternative: | Use nclu instead. |
Synopsis
- Configures a bond interface on Cumulus Linux To configure a bridge port use the cl_bridge module. To configure any other type of interface use the cl_interface module. Follow the guidelines for bonding found in the Cumulus User Guide at http://docs.cumulusnetworks.com.
Requirements
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- Alternate Debian network interface manager - ifupdown2 @ github.com/CumulusNetworks/ifupdown2
Parameters
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| addr_method |
| Configures the port to use DHCP. To enable this feature use the option dhcp. |
| alias_name | Description of the port. | |
| clag_id | Specify a unique clag_id for every dual connected bond on each peer switch. The value must be between 1 and 65535 and must be the same on both peer switches in order for the bond to be considered dual-connected. | |
| ipv4 | List of IPv4 addresses to configure on the interface. In the form X.X.X.X/YY. | |
| ipv6 | List of IPv6 addresses to configure on the interface. In the form X:X:X::X/YYY. | |
| lacp_bypass_all_active | Activate all interfaces for bypass. It is recommended to configure all_active instead of using bypass_priority. | |
| lacp_bypass_allow | Enable LACP bypass. | |
| lacp_bypass_period | Period for enabling LACP bypass. Max value is 900. | |
| lacp_bypass_priority | List of ports and priorities. Example "swp1=10, swp2=20". | |
| lacp_rate | Default: 1 | The lacp rate. |
| location | Default: [u'/etc/network/interfaces.d'] | Interface directory location. |
| miimon | Default: 100 | The mii link monitoring interval. |
| min_links | Default: 1 | Minimum number of links. |
| mode | Default: 802.3ad | The bond mode, as of Cumulus Linux 2.5 only LACP bond mode is supported. |
| mstpctl_bpduguard |
| Enables BPDU Guard on a port in vlan-aware mode. |
| mstpctl_portadminedge |
| Enables admin edge port. |
| mstpctl_portnetwork |
| Enables bridge assurance in vlan-aware mode. |
| mtu | Set MTU. Configure Jumbo Frame by setting MTU to 9000. | |
| name required | Name of the interface. | |
| pvid | In vlan-aware mode, defines vlan that is the untagged vlan. | |
| slaves required | Bond members. | |
| vids | In vlan-aware mode, lists VLANs defined under the interface. | |
| virtual_ip | Define IPv4 virtual IP used by the Cumulus Linux VRR feature. | |
| virtual_mac | Define Ethernet mac associated with Cumulus Linux VRR feature. | |
| xmit_hash_policy | Default: layer3+4 | Transmit load balancing algorithm. As of Cumulus Linux 2.5 only layer3+4 policy is supported. |
Notes
Note
- As this module writes the interface directory location, ensure that
/etc/network/interfaceshas a ‘source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*’ or whatever path is mentioned in thelocationattribute. - For the config to be activated, i.e installed in the kernel, “service networking reload” needs be be executed. See EXAMPLES section.
Examples
# Options ['virtual_mac', 'virtual_ip'] are required together
# configure a bond interface with IP address
- cl_bond:
name: bond0
slaves:
- swp4-5
ipv4: 10.1.1.1/24
# configure bond as a dual-connected clag bond
- cl_bond:
name: bond1
slaves:
- swp1s0
- swp2s0
clag_id: 1
# define cl_bond once in tasks file
# then write interface config in variables file
# with just the options you want.
- cl_bond:
name: "{{ item.key }}"
slaves: "{{ item.value.slaves }}"
clag_id: "{{ item.value.clag_id|default(omit) }}"
ipv4: "{{ item.value.ipv4|default(omit) }}"
ipv6: "{{ item.value.ipv6|default(omit) }}"
alias_name: "{{ item.value.alias_name|default(omit) }}"
addr_method: "{{ item.value.addr_method|default(omit) }}"
mtu: "{{ item.value.mtu|default(omit) }}"
vids: "{{ item.value.vids|default(omit) }}"
virtual_ip: "{{ item.value.virtual_ip|default(omit) }}"
virtual_mac: "{{ item.value.virtual_mac|default(omit) }}"
mstpctl_portnetwork: "{{ item.value.mstpctl_portnetwork|default('no') }}"
mstpctl_portadminedge: "{{ item.value.mstpctl_portadminedge|default('no') }}"
mstpctl_bpduguard: "{{ item.value.mstpctl_bpduguard|default('no') }}"
with_dict: "{{ cl_bonds }}"
