Hi Anas,

Could you try running the below snippet as a playbook.

---
- hosts: localhost
  vars:
    nios_provider:
      host: <grid>
      username: admin
      password: infoblox
  connection: local
  tasks:
   - name: create network
     nios_network:
       network: 192.168.5.0/24
       options:
         - name: domain-name
           value: dc01-dev
       network_view: default
       extattrs:
         Site: Test Site

The playbook looks good. You could check if the ansible or infoblox-client needs to be updated.

You can run the below snippet to check the outdated pip modules:

pip3 list --outdated

The below snippet will update all the outdated modules:

pip3 list --outdated --format=freeze | grep -v '^\-e' | cut -d = -f 1  | xargs -n1 pip install -U
