## Synopsis

- This module is able to configure a FortiGate or FortiOS (FOS) device by allowing the user to set and modify wireless_controller feature and timers category. Examples include all parameters and values need to be adjusted to datasources before usage. Tested with FOS v6.0.5

## Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

- fortiosapi>=0.9.8

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
host string |  | FortiOS or FortiGate IP address.
https boolean | Choices: no yes ← | Indicates if the requests towards FortiGate must use HTTPS protocol.
password string | Default: "" | FortiOS or FortiGate password.
ssl_verify boolean | Choices: no yes ← | Ensures FortiGate certificate must be verified by a proper CA.
username string |  | FortiOS or FortiGate username.
vdom string | Default: "root" | Virtual domain, among those defined previously. A vdom is a virtual instance of the FortiGate that can be configured and used as a different unit.
wireless_controller_timers dictionary | Default: null | Configure CAPWAP timers.
| ble_scan_report_intv integer |  | Time between running Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) reports (10 - 3600 sec).

| darrp_optimize integer |  | Time for running Dynamic Automatic Radio Resource Provisioning (DARRP) optimizations (0 - 86400 sec).
| darrp_time list |  | Time at which DARRP optimizations run (you can add up to 8 times).
|  | time string / required |  | Time.
| discovery_interval integer |  | Time between discovery requests (2 - 180 sec).
| echo_interval integer |  | Time between echo requests sent by the managed WTP, AP, or FortiAP (1 - 255 sec).
| fake_ap_log integer |  | Time between recording logs about fake APs if periodic fake AP logging is configured (0 - 1440 min).
| ipsec_intf_cleanup integer |  | Time period to keep IPsec VPN interfaces up after WTP sessions are disconnected (30 - 3600 sec).
| radio_stats_interval integer |  | Time between running radio reports (1 - 255 sec).
| rogue_ap_log integer |  | Time between logging rogue AP messages if periodic rogue AP logging is configured (0 - 1440 min).
| sta_capability_interval integer |  | Time between running station capability reports (1 - 255 sec).
| sta_locate_timer integer |  | Time between running client presence flushes to remove clients that are listed but no longer present (0 - 86400 sec).
| sta_stats_interval integer |  | Time between running client (station) reports (1 - 255 sec).
| vap_stats_interval integer |  | Time between running Virtual Access Point (VAP) reports (1 - 255 sec).
