20.6.0

Support for SSL certificate authentication in addition to password

The ONTAP Ansible modules currently require a username/password combination to authenticate with ONTAPI or REST APIs. It is now possible to use SSL certificate authentication with ONTAPI or REST. You will first need to install a SSL certificate in ONTAP, see for instance the first part of: https://netapp.io/2016/11/08/certificate-based-authentication-netapp-manageability-sdk-ontap/ The applications that need to be authorized for cert are ontapi and http.

The new cert_filepath, key_filepath options enable SSL certificate authentication. This is mutually exclusive with using username and password.

ONTAP does not support cert authentication for console, so this is not supported for na_ontap_command.

SSL certificate authentication requires python2.7 or 3.x.

Added REST support to existing modules

By default, the module will use REST if the target system supports it, and the options are supported. Otherwise, it will switch back to ZAPI. This behavior can be controlled with the use_rest option:

1. Always: to force REST. The module fails and reports an error if REST cannot be used.
2. Never: to force ZAPI. This could be useful if you find some incompatibility with REST, or want to confirm the behavior is identical between REST and ZAPI.
3. Auto: the default, as described above.

• na_ontap_ipspace
• na_ontap_export_policy
• na_ontap_ndmp -- Note: only enable and authtype are supported with REST
• na_ontap_net_routes
