cisco.nxos.nxos_bfd_interfaces – BFD interfaces resource module
Note
This plugin is part of the cisco.nxos collection (version 1.3.1).
To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.nxos.
To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.nxos.nxos_bfd_interfaces.
New in version 1.0.0: of cisco.nxos
Synopsis
- Manages attributes of Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) on the interface.
Note
This module has a corresponding action plugin.
Parameters
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
| config  list / elements=dictionary  | The provided configuration | ||
| bfd  string  | 
 | Enable/Disable Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) on the interface. | |
| echo  string  | 
 | Enable/Disable BFD Echo functionality on the interface. | |
| name  string  | The name of the interface. | ||
| running_config  string  | This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the NX-OS device by executing the command show running-config | section '^interface|^feature bfd'. The state parsed reads the configuration from  running_configoption 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  | 
 | The state of the configuration after module completion | |
Notes
Note
- Tested against NX-OS 7.0(3)I5(1).
- Feature bfd should be enabled for this module.

   Return Values
Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
| Key | Returned | Description | 
|---|---|---|
| after  list / elements=string  | when changed | The configuration as structured data after module completion. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above. | 
| before  list / elements=string  | always | The configuration as structured data prior to module invocation. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above. | 
| commands  list / elements=string  | always | The set of commands pushed to the remote device. Sample: ['interface Ethernet1/1', 'no bfd', 'no bfd echo'] |
