dnsF5XC

Scripts to help onboard F5 Distributed Cloud DNS

Purpose

No way to onboard to F5XC for primary DNS without manually creating entries.

Requirements

Tested with python3.8, dnsPython2.2.1, requests2.22.0

Secrets management

Nothing fancy here, by default the scripts will look in a subdirectory .secrets for 2 files. The contents of these files are a single line as follows:

.apiToken = the full API token generated from your F5XC instance with DNS rights.
e.g. "APIToken sgr54fgs!zY347rgrew34wtw4trt"

.consoleDomain = the domain/tenant id of your console instance.
e.g. If your console url is foo.console.ves.volterra.io we're looking for "foo" here.
