|
|
use ``network_cli`` on VOSS in Ansible >= 2.7.

VOSS does not support ``ansible_connection: local``. You must use ``ansible_connection: network_cli``.
|
|
|
|
Using CLI in Ansible >= 2.7
|
|
================================================================================
|
|
|
|
Example CLI ``group_vars/voss.yml``
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: yaml
|
|
|
|
ansible_connection: network_cli
|
|
ansible_network_os: voss
|
|
ansible_user: myuser
|
|
ansible_become: yes
|
|
ansible_become_method: enable
|
|
ansible_ssh_pass: !vault...
|
|
ansible_ssh_common_args: '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q bastion01"'
|
|
|
|
|
|
- If you are using SSH keys (including an ssh-agent) you can remove the ``ansible_ssh_pass`` configuration.
|
|
- If you are accessing your host directly (not through a bastion/jump host) you can remove the ``ansible_ssh_common_args`` configuration.
|
|
- If you are accessing your host through a bastion/jump host, you cannot include your SSH password in the ``ProxyCommand`` directive. To prevent secrets from leaking out (for example in ``ps`` output), SSH does not support providing passwords via environment variables.

Example CLI Task
