Synopsis

Get facts for a specific network interface or all network interfaces within a resource group.

Aliases: azure_rm_networkinterface_facts

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

python >= 2.7
azure >= 2.0.0

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
ad_user string		Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
adfs_authority_url string added in 2.6		Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority.
api_profile string added in 2.5	Default: "latest"	Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of `latest` is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack.
auth_source string added in 2.5	Choices: auto cli credential_file env msi	Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication. If not specified, ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE environment variable will be used and default to `auto` if variable is not defined. `auto` will follow the default precedence of module parameters -> environment variables -> default profile in credential file `~/.azure/credentials`. When set to `cli`, the credentials will be sources from the default Azure CLI profile. Can also be set via the `ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE` environment variable. When set to `msi`, the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. `subscription_id` or the environment variable `AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID` can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen. The `msi` was added in Ansible 2.6.
cert_validation_mode string added in 2.5	Choices: ignore validate	Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing `ignore`. Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION` environment variable.
client_id string		Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
cloud_environment string added in 2.4	Default: "AzureCloud"	For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, `AzureChinaCloud`, `AzureUSGovernment`), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the `AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT` environment variable.
name -		Only show results for a specific network interface.
password string		Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
profile string		Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file.
resource_group -		Name of the resource group containing the network interface(s). Required when searching by name.
secret string		Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
subscription_id string		Your Azure subscription Id.
tags -		Limit results by providing a list of tags. Format tags as 'key' or 'key:value'.
tenant string		Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.

Notes

Note

For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables, use a profile stored in ~/.azure/credentials, or log in before you run your tasks or playbook with az login.
Authentication is also possible using a service principal or Active Directory user.
To authenticate via service principal, pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set environment variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.
To authenticate via Active Directory user, pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.
Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment.

Examples

- name: Get facts for one network interface
  azure_rm_networkinterface_info:
    resource_group: myResourceGroup
    name: nic001

- name: Get network interfaces within a resource group
  azure_rm_networkinterface_info:
    resource_group: myResourceGroup

- name: Get network interfaces by tag
  azure_rm_networkinterface_info:
    resource_group: myResourceGroup
    tags:
      - testing
      - foo:bar

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key			Returned	Description

networkinterfaces list			always	List of network interface dicts. Each dict contains parameters can be passed to azure_rm_networkinterface module.
	create_with_security_group boolean			Specifies whether a default security group should be be created with the NIC. Only applies when creating a new NIC.
	dns_servers -			Which DNS servers should the NIC lookup. List of IP addresses.
	dns_settings -			The DNS settings in network interface.
		applied_dns_servers -		If the VM that uses this NIC is part of an Availability Set, then this list will have the union of all DNS servers from all NICs that are part of the Availability Set. This property is what is configured on each of those VMs.
		dns_servers -		List of DNS servers IP addresses.
		internal_dns_name_label -		Relative DNS name for this NIC used for internal communications between VMs in the same virtual network.
		internal_fqdn -		Fully qualified DNS name supporting internal communications between VMs in the same virtual network.
	enable_accelerated_networking -			Specifies whether the network interface should be created with the accelerated networking feature or not.
	enable_ip_forwarding -			Whether to enable IP forwarding
	id -			Id of the network interface.
	ip_configurations -			List of IP configurations, if contains multiple configurations.
		application_security_groups -		List of Application security groups. Sample: /subscriptions/<subsid>/resourceGroups/<rg>/providers/Microsoft.Network/applicationSecurityGroups/myASG
		load_balancer_backend_address_pools -		List of existing load-balancer backend address pools to associate with the network interface.
		name -		Name of the IP configuration.
		primary -		Whether the IP configuration is the primary one in the list.
		private_ip_address -		Private IP address for the IP configuration.
		private_ip_allocation_method -		Private IP allocation method.
		public_ip_address -		Name of the public IP address. None for disable IP address.
		public_ip_allocation_method -		Public IP allocation method.
	location -			Azure location.
	mac_address -			The MAC address of the network interface.
	name -			Name of the network interface.
	provisioning_state -			The provisioning state of the network interface.
	resource_group -			Name of a resource group where the network interface exists.
	security_group -			A security group resource ID with which to associate the network interface.
