list / elements=dictionary

List of binding members

Default: []

mode

string

The mode in which to configure the bindings.

If mode is set to desired, the bindings will be added or removed from the target NetScaler ADCs as necessary to match the bindings specified in the state.

If mode is set to bind, the specified bindings will be added to the resource. The existing bindings in the target ADCs will not be modified.

If mode is set to unbind, the specified bindings will be removed from the resource. The existing bindings in the target ADCs will not be modified.

nstrafficdomain_vxlan_binding

dictionary

Bindings for nstrafficdomain_vxlan_binding resource

binding_members

list / elements=dictionary

List of binding members

Default: []

mode

string

save_config

boolean

If true the module will save the configuration on the NetScaler ADC node if it makes any changes.

The module will not save the configuration on the NetScaler ADC node if it made no changes.

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

state

string

The state of the resource being configured by the module on the NetScaler ADC node.

When present, the resource will be added/updated configured according to the module’s parameters.

When absent, the resource will be deleted from the NetScaler ADC node.

When enabled, the resource will be enabled on the NetScaler ADC node.

When disabled, the resource will be disabled on the NetScaler ADC node.

Choices:

  • "absent"

  • "enabled"

  • "disabled"

td

float

Integer value that uniquely identifies a traffic domain.

validate_certs

boolean

If false, SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only be used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.

Choices:

  • false

  • true ← (default)

vmac

string

Associate the traffic domain with a VMAC address instead of with VLANs. The Citrix ADC then sends the VMAC address of the traffic domain in all responses to ARP queries for network entities in that domain. As a result, the ADC can segregate subsequent incoming traffic for this traffic domain on the basis of the destination MAC address, because the destination MAC address is the VMAC address of the traffic domain. After creating entities on a traffic domain, you can easily manage and monitor them by performing traffic domain level operations.

Choices:

  • "ENABLED"

  • "DISABLED"
