salt.modules.infoblox¶

This module have been tested on infoblox API v1.2.1, other versions of the API are likly workable.

depends:

libinfoblox, https://github.com/steverweber/libinfoblox

libinfoblox can be installed using pip install libinfoblox

API documents can be found on your infoblox server at:

https://INFOBLOX/wapidoc

configuration:

The following configuration defaults can be defined (pillar or config files '/etc/salt/master.d/infoblox.conf'):

infoblox.config:
    api_sslverify: True
    api_url: 'https://INFOBLOX/wapi/v1.2.1'
    api_user: 'username'
    api_key: 'password'

Many of the functions accept api_opts to override the API config.

salt-call infoblox.get_host name=my.host.com             api_url: 'https://INFOBLOX/wapi/v1.2.1'             api_user=admin             api_key=passs

salt.modules.infoblox.create_a(data, **api_opts)¶
