community.network.slxos_interface – Manage Interfaces on Extreme SLX-OS network devices

Note

This plugin is part of the community.network collection (version 3.0.0).

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 community.network.

To use it in a playbook, specify: community.network.slxos_interface.

Synopsis

This module provides declarative management of Interfaces on Extreme SLX-OS network devices.

Parameters

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
aggregate string			List of Interfaces definitions.
delay string		Default: 10	Time in seconds to wait before checking for the operational state on remote device. This wait is applicable for operational state argument which are state with values `up`/`down`, tx_rate and rx_rate.
description string			Description of Interface.
enabled boolean		Choices: no yes ←	Interface link status.
mtu string			Maximum size of transmit packet.
name string / required			Name of the Interface.
neighbors string			Check the operational state of given interface `name` for LLDP neighbor. The following suboptions are available.
	host string		LLDP neighbor host for given interface `name`.
	port string		LLDP neighbor port to which given interface `name` is connected.
rx_rate string			Receiver rate in bits per second (bps).
speed string			Interface link speed.
state string		Choices: present ← absent up down	State of the Interface configuration, `up` means present and operationally up and `down` means present and operationally `down`
tx_rate string			Transmit rate in bits per second (bps).

Notes

Note

Tested against SLX-OS 17s.1.02

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key	Returned	Description
commands list / elements=string	always, except for the platforms that use Netconf transport to manage the device.	The list of configuration mode commands to send to the device. Sample: ['interface Ethernet 0/2', 'description test-interface', 'mtu 1548']
