Dependencies

The firewall configuration is generated by Capirca.

To install Capirca, execute: pip install capirca.

salt.modules.capirca_acl.get_filter_config(platform, filter_name, filter_options=None, terms=None, prepend=True, pillar_key='acl', pillarenv=None, saltenv=None, merge_pillar=True, only_lower_merge=False, revision_id=None, revision_no=None, revision_date=True, revision_date_format='%Y/%m/%d')

Return the configuration of a policy filter.

platform

The name of the Capirca platform.

filter_name

The name of the policy filter.

filter_options

Additional filter options. These options are platform-specific. See the complete list of options.

terms

List of terms for this policy filter. If not specified or empty, will try to load the configuration from the pillar, unless merge_pillar is set as False.

prepend: True

When merge_pillar is set as True, the final list of terms generated by merging the terms from terms with those defined in the pillar (if any): new terms are prepended at the beginning, while existing ones will preserve the position. To add the new terms at the end of the list, set this argument to False.

pillar_key: acl

The key in the pillar containing the default attributes values. Default: acl.

pillarenv

Query the master to generate fresh pillar data on the fly, specifically from the requested pillar environment.

saltenv

Included only for compatibility with pillarenv_from_saltenv, and is otherwise ignored.

merge_pillar: True

Merge the CLI variables with the pillar. Default: True.

only_lower_merge: False

Specify if it should merge only the terms fields. Otherwise it will try to merge also filters fields. Default: False.

revision_id

Add a comment in the filter config having the description for the changes applied.

revision_no

The revision count.

revision_date: True

Boolean flag: display the date when the filter configuration was generated. Default: True.

revision_date_format: %Y/%m/%d

The date format to be used when generating the perforce data. Default: %Y/%m/%d (<year>/<month>/<day>).

CLI Example:

salt '*' capirca.get_filter_config ciscoxr my-filter pillar_key=netacl

Output Example:

! $Id:$

 remark $Id:$
 remark my-term
 deny ipv4 any eq 1234 any
 deny ipv4 any eq 1235 any
 remark my-other-term
 permit tcp any range 5678 5680 any
exit

platform

The name of the Capirca platform.

filter_name

The name of the policy filter.

term_name

The name of the term.

filter_options

Additional filter options. These options are platform-specific. E.g.: inet6, bridge, object-group, See the complete list of options.

pillar_key: acl

The key in the pillar containing the default attributes values. Default: acl. If the pillar contains the following structure:

firewall:
  - my-filter:
      terms:
        - my-term:
            source_port: 1234
            source_address:
                - 1.2.3.4/32
                - 5.6.7.8/32

The pillar_key field would be specified as firewall.

pillarenv

Query the master to generate fresh pillar data on the fly, specifically from the requested pillar environment.

saltenv

merge_pillar: True

revision_id

Add a comment in the term config having the description for the changes applied.

revision_no

The revision count.

revision_date: True

Boolean flag: display the date when the term configuration was generated. Default: True.

revision_date_format: %Y/%m/%d

The date format to be used when generating the perforce data. Default: %Y/%m/%d (<year>/<month>/<day>).

source_service

A special service to choose from. This is a helper so the user is able to select a source just using the name, instead of specifying a source_port and protocol.

As this module is available on Unix platforms only, it reads the IANA port assignment from /etc/services.

If the user requires additional shortcuts to be referenced, they can add entries under /etc/services, which can be managed using the file state.

destination_service

A special service to choose from. This is a helper so the user is able to select a source just using the name, instead of specifying a destination_port and protocol. Allows the same options as source_service.

term_fields

Term attributes. To see what fields are supported, please consult the list of supported keywords. Some platforms have few other optional keywords.

or a list of services to be matched:

source_service:
    - ntp
    - snmp
    - ldap
    - bgpd

Note

The port fields source_port and destination_port can be used as above to select either a single value, either a list of values, but also they can select port ranges. Example:

source_port:
    - [1000, 2000]
    - [3000, 4000]

With the configuration above, the user is able to select the 1000-2000 and 3000-4000 source port ranges.

CLI Example:

salt '*' capirca.get_term_config arista filter-name term-name source_address=1.2.3.4 destination_address=5.6.7.8 action=accept

Output Example:

! $Date: 2017/03/22 $
no ip access-list filter-name
ip access-list filter-name
 remark term-name
 permit ip host 1.2.3.4 host 5.6.7.8
