fortios_system_vdom_sflow – Configure sFlow per VDOM to add or change the IP address and UDP port that FortiGate sFlow agents in this VDOM use to send sFlow datagrams to an sFlow collector in Fortinet’s FortiOS and FortiGate.

New in version 2.0.0.

Synopsis

  • This module is able to configure a FortiGate or FortiOS (FOS) device by allowing the user to set and modify system feature and vdom_sflow category. Examples include all parameters and values need to be adjusted to datasources before usage. Tested with FOS v6.0.0

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • ansible>=2.15

Tips

Using member operation to add an element to an existing object.

FortiOS Version Compatibility

Supported Version Ranges: v6.0.0 -> 7.4.3

Parameters

Note

  • Legacy fortiosapi has been deprecated, httpapi is the preferred way to run playbooks
