+short_description: Manage cookie persistence profiles on BIG-IP
+description:
+  - Manage cookie persistence profiles on BIG-IP.
+version_added: 2.8
+options:
+  name:
+    description:
+      - Specifies the name of the profile.
+    required: True
+  description:
+    description:
+      - Description of the profile.
+  parent:
+    description:
+      - Specifies the profile from which this profile inherits settings.
+      - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the default
+        is the system-supplied C(cookie) profile.
+    default: cookie
+  cookie_method:
+    description:
+      - Specifies the type of cookie processing that the system uses.
+      - When C(hash), specifies that the server provides the cookie, which the
+        system then maps consistently to a specific node. This persistence type
+        requires a C(cookie_name) value.
+      - When C(insert), specifies that the system inserts server information,
+        in the form of a cookie, into the header of the server response.
+      - When C(passive), specifies that the server provides the cookie, formatted
+        with the correct server information and timeout. This persistence type
+        requires a C(cookie_name) value.
+      - When C(rewrite), specifies that the system intercepts the BIGipCookie
+        header, sent from the server, and overwrites the name and value of that
+        cookie.
+    choices:
+      - hash
+      - insert
+      - passive
+      - rewrite
+  cookie_name:
+    description:
+      - Specifies a unique name for the cookie.
+  http_only:
+    description:
+      - Specifies whether the httponly attribute should be enabled or
+        disabled for the inserted cookies.
+    type: bool
+  match_across_services:
+    description:
+      - When C(yes), specifies that all persistent connections from a client IP address that go
+        to the same virtual IP address also go to the same node.
+      - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the
+        default is provided by the parent profile.
+    type: bool
+  match_across_virtuals:
+    description:
+      - When C(yes), specifies that all persistent connections from the same client IP address
+        go to the same node.
+      - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the
+        default is provided by the parent profile.
+    type: bool
+  match_across_pools:
+    description:
+      - When C(yes), specifies that the system can use any pool that contains this persistence
+        record.
+      - When creating a new profile, if this parameter is not specified, the
+        default is provided by the parent profile.
+    type: bool
+  cookie_encryption:
+    description:
+      - Specifies the way in which the cookie encryption format is used.
+      - When C(disabled), generates the cookie format unencrypted.
+      - When C(preferred), generate an encrypted cookie, but accepts both encrypted and unencrypted formats.
+      - When C(required), cookie format must be encrypted.
+    choices:
+      - disabled
+      - preferred
+      - required
+  override_connection_limit:
+    description:
+      - When C(yes), specifies that the system allows you to specify that pool member connection
+        limits will be overridden for persisted clients.
+      - Per-virtual connection limits remain hard limits and are not overridden.
+    type: bool
+  encrypt_cookie_pool_name:
+    description:
+      - Specifies whether the pool-name in the inserted BIG-IP default cookie should be encrypted.
+    type: bool
+  always_send:
+    description:
+      - Send the cookie persistence entry on every reply, even if the
+        entry has previously been supplied to the client.
+    type: bool
+  secure:
+    description:
+      - Specifies whether the secure attribute should be enabled or
+        disabled for the inserted cookies.
+    type: bool
+  encryption_passphrase:
+    description:
+      - Specifies a passphrase to be used for cookie encryption.
+  update_password:
+    description:
+      - C(always) will allow to update passphrases if the user chooses to do so.
+        C(on_create) will only set the passphrase for newly created profiles.
+    default: always
+    choices:
+      - always
+      - on_create
+  partition:
+    description:
+      - Device partition to manage resources on.
+    default: Common
+  state:
+    description:
+      - When C(present), ensures that the profile exists.
+      - When C(absent), ensures the profile is removed.
+    default: present
+    choices:
+      - present
+      - absent
