Default variable details

Some of debops.radvd default variables have more extensive configuration than simple strings or lists, here you can find documentation and examples for them.

radvd__interfaces

radvd__interfaces 

The radvd__*_interfaces variables contain the radvd interface configuration. Each entry represents one interface in the form of a YAML dictionary with specific parameters:

name

Required. The name of the network interface to configure. This parameter is used to merge multiple interface configurations with the same name together.

comment

Optional. String or a YAML text block with comments about a particular interface.

state

Optional. If not specified or present, the interface configuration will ge included in the /etc/radvd.conf configuration file. If absent, the configuration will be removed from the configuration file.

If init, a given entry will be prepared but not actually included in the finished configuration, this can be used to prepare interface configuration and activate it conditionally.

If ignore, a given entry will not be taken into account during configuration file generation.

options

Optional. List with radvd.conf(5) interface specific options. Each list entry is a YAML dictionary. You can use a simple form, where a dictionary key is an option name, and the dictionary value is its value (use YAML booleans as on/off values):

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    options:

      - 'AdvSendAdvert': True
      - 'IgnoreIfMissing': True

You can also use an extended form of configuration options with parameters:

name: The name of a given option.
value: The value of a given option.
state: If not specified or present, the option will be included in the configuration file; if absent, the option will be removed from the configuration file.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    options:

      - name: 'AdvSendAdvert'
        value: True

      - name: 'IgnoreIfMissing'
        value: True

The options parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are merged together.

prefix or prefixes

Optional. List of IPv6 subnets to advertise on this interface. You can specify either a simple string, or a YAML dictionary with specific options:

name: The prefix to manage on this network interface.
state: If not specified or present, the prefix will be included in the configuration. If absent, prefix will be removed from the configuration.
options: Custom radvd.conf options for a given prefix. The format is the same as the options parameter of the interface configuration.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    prefixes:

      - '2001:db8:aaa::/64'

      - name: '2001:db8:bbb::/64'
        options:
          - 'AdvOnLink': True
          - 'AdvAutonomous': True

The prefix or prefixes parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

client or clients

Optional. List of client IPv6 link-local addresses which will be sent advertisements (if not specified, advertisements are sent to all hosts on the local network). You can specify either strings of IPv6 addresses, or use YAML dictionary with specific parameters:

name: The IPv6 link-local address of the client.
state: If not specified or present, the client will be included in the configuration. If absent, the client will be removed from the configuration.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    clients:

      - 'fe80::21f:16ff:fe06:3aab'

      - name: 'fe80::21d:72ff:fe96:aaff'
        state: 'present'

The client or clients parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

route or routes

Optional. List of IPv6 routes to advertise on this interface. You can specify either a simple string, or a YAML dictionary with specific options:

name: The route to manage on this network interface.
state: If not specified or present, the route will be included in the configuration. If absent, route will be removed from the configuration.
options: Custom radvd.conf options for a given route. The format is the same as the options parameter of the interface configuration.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    routes:

      - '2001:db8:ccc::/64'

      - name: '2001:db8:ddd::/64'
        options:
          - 'AdvRoutePreference': 'low'
          - 'RemoveRoute': True

The route or routes parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

rdnss

Optional. List of IPv6 nameservers to advertise to the clients. You can specify the addresses as simple strings or use a YAML dictionary with specific parameters:

name: The IPv6 address of the nameserver.
state: If not specified or present, the nameserver will be included in the configuration. If absent, nameserver will be removed from the configuration.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    rdnss:

      - '2001:db8::53'

      - name: '2001:db8::5353'
        state: 'present'

The rdnss parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

rdnss_options

Optional. Specify custom RDNSS options. The format is the same as the options parameter of the interface configuration. The rdnss_options parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

dnssl

Optional. List of DNS search domains to advertise to the clients. You can specify the search domains as simple strings or use a YAML dictionary with specific parameters:

name: The DNS search domain to manage.
state: If not specified or present, the search domain will be included in the configuration. If absent, search domain will be removed from the configuration.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    dnssl:

      - 'example.org'

      - name: 'other.example.org'
        state: 'present'

The dnssl parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

dnssl_options

Optional. Specify custom DNSSL options. The format is the same as the options parameter of the interface configuration. The dnssl_options parameters from multiple configuration entries with the same name are NOT merged together.

abro

Optional. List of Authoritative Border Router Option definitions. You can specify either a simple string, or a YAML dictionary with specific options:

name: The IPv6 address of the router to manage.
state: If not specified or present, the given ABRO options will be included in the configuration. If absent, the ABRO options will be removed from the configuration.
options: Custom radvd.conf options for a given ABRO configuration. The format is the same as the options parameter of the interface configuration.

Example:

radvd__interfaces:
  - name: 'eth1'
    abro:

      - 'fe80::a200:0:0:1'

      - name: 'fe80::a200:0:0:2'

          - 'AdvVersionLow': '10'
          - 'AdvVersionHigh': '2'
          - 'AdvValidLifetime': '2'
