Usage

=====

Example inventory file

```ini

[ipaserver]

ipaserver.test.local

```

Example playbook to set global DNS configuration:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle global DNS configuration

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  # Set dnsconfig.

  - ipadnsconfig:

      forwarders:

        - ip_address: 8.8.4.4

        - ip_address: 2001:4860:4860::8888

          port: 53

      forward_policy: only

      allow_sync_ptr: yes

```

Example playbook to ensure a global forwarder, with a custom port, is absent:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle global DNS configuration

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  # Ensure global forwarder with a custom port is absent.

  - ipadnsconfig:

      forwarders:

          - ip_address: 2001:4860:4860::8888

            port: 53

      state: absent

```

Example playbook to disable global forwarders:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to disable global DNS forwarders

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  # Disable global forwarders.

  - ipadnsconfig:

      forward_policy: none

```

Example playbook to change global forward policy:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to change global forward policy

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  # Disable global forwarders.

  - ipadnsconfig:

      forward_policy: first

```

Example playbook to disallow synchronization of forward (A, AAAA) and reverse (PTR) records:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to disallow reverse synchronization.

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  # Disable global forwarders.
