Note
This plugin is part of the cisco.meraki collection (version 2.5.0).
You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible
package. It is not included in ansible-core
. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list
.
To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.meraki
.
To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.meraki.meraki_ms_stack_l3_interface
.
Synopsis
- Allows for creation, management, and visibility into routed interfaces on Meraki MS switches.
Parameters

Authentication key provided by the dashboard. Required if environmental variable MERAKI_KEY is not set.
|

|
interface_id
string
|
Uniqiue identification number for layer 3 interface.

|
||
cost
integer
|
The path cost for this interface.
|
||
is_passive_enabled
boolean
|
|
When enabled, OSPF will not run on the interface, but the subnet will still be advertised.
|
|
output_format
string
|
|
Instructs module whether response keys should be snake case (ex. net_id ) or camel case (ex. netId ).
|
|
output_level
string
|
|
Set amount of debug output during module execution.
|
|
rate_limit_retry_time
integer
|
Default:
165
|

|
|
stack_id
string
|
The unique identifier of the stack.
|
||
state
string
|
|
Create or modify an organization.
|
|
subnet

|
Time to timeout for HTTP requests.
|
|
use_https
boolean
|
|
If
no , it will use HTTP. Otherwise it will use HTTPS.
Only useful for internal Meraki developers.

|
Whether to validate HTTP certificates.
|
|
vlan_id
integer
|
The VLAN this routed interface is on.
VLAN must be between 1 and 4094.

Notes
Note
- Once a layer 3 interface is created, the API does not allow updating the interface and specifying
default_gateway
. - More information about the Meraki API can be found at https://dashboard.meraki.com/api_docs.
- Some of the options are likely only used for developers within Meraki.
- As of Ansible 2.9, Meraki modules output keys as snake case. To use camel case, set the
ANSIBLE_MERAKI_FORMAT
environment variable tocamelcase
. - Ansible’s Meraki modules will stop supporting camel case output in Ansible 2.13. Please update your playbooks.
- Check Mode downloads the current configuration from the dashboard, then compares changes against this download. Check Mode will report changed if there are differences in the configurations, but does not submit changes to the API for validation of change.
