cisco.iosxr.iosxr_lldp_interfaces – LLDP interfaces resource module

Note

This plugin is part of the cisco.iosxr collection (version 2.5.0).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.iosxr.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.iosxr.iosxr_lldp_interfaces.

New in version 1.0.0: of cisco.iosxr

Synopsis

  • This module manages Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) attributes of interfaces on IOS-XR devices.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
config
list / elements=dictionary
A dictionary of LLDP interfaces options.
destination
dictionary
Specifies LLDP destination configuration on the interface.
mac_address
string
    Choices:
  • ieee-nearest-bridge
  • ieee-nearest-non-tmpr-bridge
Specifies the LLDP destination mac address on the interface.
name
string
Name/Identifier of the interface or Ether-Bundle.
receive
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Enable/disable LLDP RX on an interface.
transmit
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Enable/disable LLDP TX on an interface.
running_config
string
This option is used only with state parsed.
The value of this option should be the output received from the IOS-XR device by executing the command show running-config int.
The state parsed reads the configuration from running_config option and transforms it into Ansible structured data as per the resource module's argspec and the value is then returned in the parsed key within the result.
state
string
    Choices:
  • merged ←
  • replaced
  • overridden
  • deleted
  • parsed
  • rendered
  • gathered
The state of the configuration after module completion.
