community.network.vdirect_commit – Commits pending configuration changes on Radware devices
Note
This plugin is part of the community.network collection (version 3.0.0).
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 community.network.
To use it in a playbook, specify: community.network.vdirect_commit.
Synopsis
- Commits pending configuration changes on one or more Radware devices via vDirect server.
 - For Alteon ADC device, apply, sync and save actions will be performed by default. Skipping of an action is possible by explicit parameter specifying.
 - For Alteon VX Container device, no sync operation will be performed since sync action is only relevant for Alteon ADC devices.
 - For DefensePro and AppWall devices, a bulk commit action will be performed. Explicit apply, sync and save actions specifying is not relevant.
