Exemplary CDT template for Ansible protocol:
{"PlaybookName": ${playbook},
"NodeList": ${node_list},
"EnvParameters": {
"IsPostCheck": true,
"DtDestinations": [{
"vfw_ip": „192.168.10.110",
"vsink_ip": „192.168.20.240"
}]
},
${is_post_check},
"ConfigurationFile": ${distribution_config_file}
},
"FileParameters": {${distribution_config_file} : ${distribution_config_file_content}
},
"Timeout": 3600
}
EnvParameters includes protocol specific parameters for Ansible playbook or Chef cookbook. Here with information if the Check is performed before or after traffic distribution (IsPostCheck) and with further information about the distribution that will be performed (for PreCheck) or for the one that was already performed (PostCheck). EnvParameters has one two mandatory parameters: "IsPostCheck" and the second one that is optional: "DtDestinations". Parameters in "DtDestinations" will depend on the VNF.folds information about name of file with configuration of traffic distrribution. FileParameters section specifies content of file that will be uploaded to Ansible server, the file will be loaded by playbook as Input parameters. This file holds information provided by the OOF in DistributeTraffic optimization Response:
