tmsh to bigsuds - virtual server - associate a vlan and assign a persistence profile

Managed to succeed in these areas soon after posting ... Sharing anyway, this might help someone down the road...

• persistence : the string was missing the Partition prefix '/Common' ...

b.LocalLB.VirtualServer.add_persistence_profile( virtual_servers = [virtualname], profiles = [[ {'profile_name': '/Common/source_addr', 'default_profile': 'true'} ]] )

• set_vlans: had to fix / expand the vlans definition after a closer look at the API docs

from

obj.LocalLB.VirtualServer.set_vlan( virtual_servers = [virtualname], vlans = [vlans] )

to

obj.LocalLB.VirtualServer.set_vlan( virtual_servers = [virtualname], vlans = [{ 'state':'STATE_ENABLED', 'vlans':[vlans_list] }] )

Note: vlans_list is picked up via the 'vlans' arg, a list of comma-separated vlans specified on the command line: I have set 2 vlans at once on this VS... Here is an excerpt of my create_vip function:

        vlans_list = []
        for vm in vlans.split(','):
                vlans_list.append(vm)

Almost there...

What's left is to research around the snat pool creation

v11: set_source_address_translation_snat_pool ? anything else?

hopefully it's also v10 compat so I won't have to juggle between that and set_snat_pool (v9)...

If you have examples to share, this is what I have to move from:

tmsh create /ltm snat MY_SNAT_POOL translation 1.2.3.4 origins add { 5.6.7.8/32 } vlans-enabled vlans add { Internal }

tmsh modify /ltm snat-translation 1.2.3.4 { tcp-idle-timeout 300 udp-idle-timeout 300 ip-idle-timeout 300 }
