Puppet module for managing the Foreman Smart Proxy

Installs and configures the Foreman Smart Proxy and services that it can interact with, e.g. DNS, DHCP and Puppet and TFTP.

Part of the Foreman installer: https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-installer

PowerDNS support

To use the PowerDNS plugin, the following variables need to be set on the main foreman_proxy class.

$dns          => true
$dns_managed  => false
$dns_provider => 'powerdns'

Then you also need to include foreman_proxy::plugin::dns::powerdns.

The powerdns plugin can optionally manage the database. If that's used, then the puppetlabs-mysql module must be added to the modulepath, otherwise it's not required.

Compatibility

This module only supports Smart Proxy 1.12 or higher as of version 4.0, as the configuration layout changed significantly.

To configure older versions of the Smart Proxy use version 2.x of this module for 1.5 to 1.10 and 3.x for 1.11.

1.16 compatibility notes

On Smart Proxy 1.16+ with puppetca support, also set:

use_autosignfile => true,

to ensure the new autosignfile parameter is used instead of puppetdir.

1.15 compatibility notes

On Smart Proxy 1.15+ with realm support, also set:

realm_split_config_files => true,

to ensure the new separate realm.yml and realm_freeipa.yaml files are configured correctly.
