Summary

This is primarily a maintenance release to provide compatibility with the latest Ansible 2.3.0 release.

New Features

Non-default SSH private key files with the ssh_private_key_file argument

  • Priv ssh key #205
    Example:
   - name: gather facts
     junos_get_facts:
       host={{ inventory_hostname }}
       user='xxxx'
       passwd='Test123'
       ssh_private_key_file='/Users/nitinkr/.ssh/id_rsa_vmx'
     register: junos

   - name: Verify JUNOS version
     debug: msg="{{junos.facts.version}}"

where passwd='Test123' is the passphrase for the ssh private key file. (If passwd is ommitted, the key is tried with an empty passphrase.)

Support the update argument for configuration loading with junos_install_config

  • "update" action for config load #218
    This feature is equivalent to a load update from the Junos CLI. When the update=True argument is specified for junos_install_config, the complete loaded configuration is compared against the candidate configuration. For each hierarchy level or configuration object that is different in the two configurations, the version in the loaded configuration replaces the version in the candidate configuration. When the configuration is later committed, only system processes that are affected by the changed configuration elements parse the new configuration. This action is supported from PyEZ 2.1.0.
    Example:
    - name: Install the config using load update
      junos_install_config:
        host: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
        user: "{{ username }}"
        passwd: "{{ password }}"
        file: "{{ inventory_hostname }}.conf"
        diffs_file: "{{ inventory_hostname }}.diff"

ISSU/NSSU support for junos_install_os

  • ISSU/NSSU support #219
    Support the ability to perform a unified in-service software upgrade from the junos_install_os module by adding the issu argument. For Juniper Networks EX Series devices which support the nonstop software upgrade feature, the nssu argument is added.
    Example:
    - name: Perform an ISSU of Junos
      junos_install_os:
        host: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
        user: "{{ username }}"
        passwd: "{{ password }}"
        issu: True
        version: "16.1R4.7"
        package: "junos-install-mx-x86-64-16.1R4.7.tgz"
