Cross–Data-Center Firewall Policy Support

[matt-wittmann]

According to the documentation, cross–data-center firewall policies are currently not supported although intra–data-center firewall policies are. I need to automate the provisioning of a firewall policy across data centers with Ansible. Preferably, this would be implemented with the existing clc_firewall_policy module so that I merely need to specify a new property, such as destination_location. I would expect, if location and destination_location are the same, it is treated as an intra–data-center policy; otherwise, it's cross–data-center.

The current V2 api does not provide any operations to support cross-data-center firewalls. Until this changes, we will not be able to support this type of action.

Can we tie this issue to a feature request in the CLC v2 API?

I would engage the platform team directly to get the API created. Once that is ready we can take action or you can add the functionality via pull request to our repository.
