18.17. Network states for the network RHEL system role


The network RHEL system role supports state configurations in playbooks to configure the devices. For this, use the network_state variable followed by the state configurations.

Benefits of using the network_state variable in a playbook:

  • Using the declarative method with the state configurations, you can configure interfaces, and the NetworkManager creates a profile for these interfaces in the background.
  • With the network_state variable, you can specify the options that you require to change, and all the other options will remain the same as they are. However, with the network_connections variable, you must specify all settings to change the network connection profile.
重要

You can set only Nmstate YAML instructions in network_state. These instructions differ from the variables you can set in network_connections.

For example, to create an Ethernet connection with dynamic IP address settings, use the following vars block in your playbook:

vars:
  network_state:
    interfaces:
    - name: enp7s0
      type: ethernet
      state: up
      ipv4:
        enabled: true
        auto-dns: true
        auto-gateway: true
        auto-routes: true
        dhcp: true
      ipv6:
        enabled: true
        auto-dns: true
        auto-gateway: true
        auto-routes: true
        autoconf: true
        dhcp: true
vars:
  network_connections:
    - name: enp7s0
      interface_name: enp7s0
      type: ethernet
      autoconnect: yes
      ip:
        dhcp4: yes
        auto6: yes
      state: up

For example, to only change the connection status of dynamic IP address settings that you created as above, use the following vars block in your playbook:
