Note

This plugin is part of the oracle.oci collection (version 4.14.0).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install oracle.oci.

To use it in a playbook, specify: oracle.oci.oci_network_cross_connect_group.

New in version 2.9.0: of oracle.oci

Synopsis

  • This module allows the user to create, update and delete a CrossConnectGroup resource in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

  • For state=present, creates a new cross-connect group to use with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect. For more information, see FastConnect Overview.

  • For the purposes of access control, you must provide the OCID of the compartment where you want the cross-connect group to reside. If you’re not sure which compartment to use, put the cross-connect group in the same compartment with your VCN. For more information about compartments and access control, see Overview of the IAM Service. For information about OCIDs, see Resource Identifiers.

  • You may optionally specify a display name for the cross-connect group. It does not have to be unique, and you can change it. Avoid entering confidential information.

  • This resource has the following action operations in the oracle.oci.oci_network_cross_connect_group_actions module: change_compartment.

Requirements

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

Parameters

api_user_key_file
string
Full path and filename of the private key (in PEM format). If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_KEY_FILE variable, if any, is used.

If the key is encrypted with a pass-phrase, the api_user_key_pass_phrase option must also be provided.
api_user_key_pass_phrase
string
Passphrase used by the key referenced in api_user_key_file, if it is encrypted. If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_KEY_PASS_PHRASE variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the key passphrase is not specified through a configuration file (See config_file_location).

The type of authentication to use for making API requests. By default auth_type="api_key" based authentication is performed and the API key (see api_user_key_file) in your config file will be used. If this 'auth_type' module option is not specified, the value of the OCI_ANSIBLE_AUTH_TYPE, if any, is used. Use auth_type="instance_principal" to use instance principal based authentication when running ansible playbooks within an OCI compute instance.

config_profile_name
string
The profile to load from the config file referenced by config_file_location. If not set, then the value of the OCI_CONFIG_PROFILE environment variable, if any, is used. Otherwise, defaults to the "DEFAULT" profile in config_file_location.
