bigsuds-1.01 Need help creating self IP using SelfIPV2.create

I am trying to create a self IP using bigsuds-1.01 and cannot figure the syntax. Here is what I have come up with but I cannot figure out how to specify the 'floating_states' or what I am doing wrong here.

 

 

Here is the command I am using and below is the result of running it:

 

 

b.Networking.SelfIPV2.create(['self_ips' 'ext-self'], ['vlan_names' 'ext-esnet'], ['addresses' '10.1.214.70'], ['netmasks' '255.255.0.0'], ['traffic_groups' 'none'], ['floating_states', 'STATE_DISABLED'])

 

 

 

 

 

 

>>> import bigsuds

 

>>> b = bigsuds.BIGIP('10.3.214.70')

 

>>> b.Networking.VLAN.get_list()

 

['/Common/ext-esnet']

 

>>>

 

>>> b.Networking.SelfIPV2.create(['self_ips' 'ext-self'], ['vlan_names' 'ext-esnet'], ['addresses' '10.1.214.70'], ['netmasks' '255.255.0.0'], ['traffic_groups' 'none'], ['floating_states', 'STATE_DISABLED'])

    I had the syntax completely wrong. I now have a working example:

     

     

    b.Networking.VLAN.create_v2(vlans = ['ext-esnet'], vlan_ids = [1101], members = [[{'member_name': '1.1', 'member_type': 'MEMBER_INTERFACE', 'tag_state': 'MEMBER_UNTAGGED'}]], failsafe_states = ['STATE_DISABLED'], timeouts = [90])

    Here it is a lot more readable as I used it in script:

     

     

     

    !/usr/bin/python

     

     

    import bigsuds

     

     

    set target system and supply login info

     

    b = bigsuds.BIGIP(

     

    hostname = '10.3.214.70',

     

    username = 'admin',

     

    password = 'admin',

     

    )

     

     

    make a self IP

     

    b.Networking.SelfIPV2.create(

     

    self_ips = ['ext-self'],

     

    vlan_names = ['ext-esnet'],

     

    addresses = ['10.1.214.70'],

     

    netmasks = ['255.255.0.0'],

     

    traffic_groups = ['traffic-group-local-only'],

     

    floating_states = ['STATE_DISABLED']

     

    )
