Synopsis

This module manages attributes of link aggregation groups of NX-OS Interfaces.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary				A list of link aggregation group configurations.
	members list / elements=dictionary			The list of interfaces that are part of the group.
		force boolean	Choices: no yes	When true it forces link aggregation group members to match what is declared in the members param. This can be used to remove members.
		member string		The interface name.
		mode string	Choices: active on passive	Link aggregation group (LAG).
	name string / required			Name of the link aggregation group (LAG).
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. 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 gathered rendered parsed	The state of the configuration after module completion.

Notes

Note

Tested against NXOS 7.3.(0)D1(1) on VIRL.
This module works with connection network_cli.

Examples

# Using merged

# Before state:
# -------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4

- name: Merge provided configuration with device configuration.
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    config:
    - name: port-channel99
      members:
      - member: Ethernet1/4
    state: merged

# After state:
# ------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4
#   channel-group 99


# Using replaced

# Before state:
# -------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4
#   channel-group 99 mode active

- name: Replace device configuration of specified LAG attributes of given interfaces
    with provided configuration.
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    config:
    - name: port-channel10
      members:
      - member: Ethernet1/4
    state: replaced

# After state:
# ------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4
#   channel-group 10


# Using overridden

# Before state:
# -------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4
#   channel-group 10
# interface Ethernet1/2
#   channel-group 99 mode passive

- name: Override device configuration of all LAG attributes of given interfaces on
    device with provided configuration.
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    config:
    - name: port-channel20
      members:
      - member: Ethernet1/6
        force: true
    state: overridden

# After state:
# ------------
# interface Ethernet1/2
# interface Ethernet1/4
# interface Ethernet1/6
#   channel-group 20 force


# Using deleted

# Before state:
# -------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4
#   channel-group 99 mode active

- name: Delete LAG attributes of given interface (This won't delete the port-channel
    itself).
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    config:
    - port-channel: port-channel99
    state: deleted

- name: Delete LAG attributes of all the interfaces
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    state: deleted

# After state:
# ------------
#
# interface Ethernet1/4
#   no channel-group 99

# Using rendered

- name: Use rendered state to convert task input to device specific commands
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    config:
    - name: port-channel10
      members:
      - member: Ethernet1/800

      - member: Ethernet1/801
    - name: port-channel11
      members:
      - member: Ethernet1/802
        mode: passive
    state: rendered

# Task Output (redacted)
# -----------------------

# rendered:
#  - "interface Ethernet1/800"
#  - "channel-group 10 mode active"
#  - "interface Ethernet1/801"
#  - "channel-group 10"
#  - "interface Ethernet1/802"
#  - "channel-group 11 mode passive"

# Using parsed

# parsed.cfg
# ------------

# interface port-channel10
# interface port-channel11
# interface port-channel12
# interface Ethernet1/800
#   channel-group 10 mode active
# interface Ethernet1/801
#   channel-group 10 mode active
# interface Ethernet1/802
#   channel-group 11 mode passive
# interface Ethernet1/803
#   channel-group 11 mode passive

- name: Use parsed state to convert externally supplied config to structured format
  cisco.nxos.nxos_lag_interfaces:
    running_config: "{{ lookup('file', 'parsed.cfg') }}"
    state: parsed

# Task output (redacted)
# -----------------------

# parsed:
#  - members:

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.
