Ansible Jinja2 filters for Cisco type 5 and type 7 password hashes

ansible-filter-cisco-hash

Ansible Jinja2 filters for Cisco type 5 and type 7 password hashes. This requires the Passlib Python library.

• {{password|ciscohash5}} (see Note)
• {{password|ciscohash7}}
• {{password|ciscohashpix}}
• {{password|ciscohashpix(user)}}
• {{password|ciscohashpasa}} (only with Passlib 1.7 or later)
• {{password|ciscohashasa(user)}} (only with Passlib 1.7 or later)

Note: Because the hash will be different at each invocation one has to add a when condition to the task as shown in the example below.

The filter plugin works with Ansible 2.0+ and Passlib 1.6+.

Usage

The filters are wrapped into an Ansible role which can be installed directly from Github.

pip install passlib
ansible-galaxy install -f git+https://github.com/mjuenema/ansible-filter-cisco-hash.git

The role does not contain any playbooks but once you reference in your own playbook the filters become available.

Example

- name: Configure Cisco IOS
  hosts: routers

  vars:
    enable_password: my_enable_password

  roles:
    - ansible-filter-cisco-hash

  tasks:
    - name: Configure enable secret
      ios_config:
        lines:
        - "enable secret 5 {{enable_password|ciscohash5}}"
      when: 'enable secret 5' not in ansible_net_config
