Notes
Note
- If 
state=absent, the module will attempt to remove the given key configuration. If a matching key configuration isn’t found on the device, the module will fail. - If 
state=absentandauthentication=on, authentication will be turned on. - If 
state=absentandauthentication=off, authentication will be turned off.
