Lockdown v6 Deplotment

This is a Lockdown v6 Deployment Repo. The whole deployment and VM configuration procedure is carried out by ansible.

Where to start?

Main playbook: deploy.yaml

Requirements

• python >=2.6
• pyshere
• pyVmomi

Role Variables

Variables are generated using dynamic inventory, please check out inventory.py (Passwords and other sensitive information is passed thru a CLI, or a survey if you are using Ansible tower)

Notes

VM OVA(s) could be requested thru issues section of this repo. Generally we just install vmware tools and ssh/winrm depending on if it is Linux or Windows.

Some modules were imported from ansible 2.8 (as of 5/2/2019 Ansible 2.8 is still in development)

If you don't have problems with mass cloning and configuration in your vcenter, you can adjust role 'template_deployment' to make the deployment faster
