rules

list / elements=dictionary

An array of traffic shaping rules. Rules are applied in the order that they are specified in. An empty list (or null) means no rules. Note that you are allowed a maximum of 8 rules.

definitions

list / elements=dictionary

A list of objects describing the definitions of your traffic shaping rule. At least one definition is required.

type

value

string

If "type" is 'host', 'port', 'ipRange' or 'localNet', then "value" must be a string, matching either a hostname (e.g. "somesite.com"), a port (e.g. 8080), or an IP range ("192.1.0.0", "192.1.0.0/16", or "10.1.0.0/16 80"). 'localNet' also supports CIDR notation, excluding custom ports. If "type" is 'application' or 'applicationCategory', then "value" must be an object with the structure { "id" "meraki layer7/..." }, where "id" is the application category or application ID (for a list of IDs for your network, use the trafficShaping/applicationCategories endpoint).

Notes

Note

  • SDK Method used are wireless.Wireless.update_network_wireless_ssid_traffic_shaping_rules,

  • Paths used are put /networks/{networkId}/wireless/ssids/{number}/trafficShaping/rules,

  • Does not support check_mode

  • The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins, but instead the embedded connection manager from Cisco DNAC SDK

  • The parameters starting with dnac_ are used by the Cisco DNAC Python SDK to establish the connection
