eos_lag_interfaces

Collection Note

This module is part of the arista.eos collection. To install the collection, use:

ansible-galaxy collection install arista.eos
Added in version 1.0.0.

Synopsis

  • This module manages attributes of link aggregation groups on Arista EOS devices.

Parameters

Parameter Defaults / Choices Comments
config
list / elements=dict
A list of link aggregation group configurations.
config.members Ethernet interfaces that are part of the group.
config.name Name of the port-channel interface of the link aggregation group (LAG) e.g., Port-Channel5.
running_config
str
This option is used only with state I(parsed).
The value of this option should be the output received from the EOS device by executing the command B(show running-config | section interfaces).
The state I(parsed) reads the configuration from C(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 I(parsed) key within the result.
state
str
Default: merged
Choices: merged, replaced, overridden, deleted, rendered, gathered, parsed
The state of the configuration after module completion.

Notes

Note

  • Tested against Arista EOS 4.24.6F
  • This module works with connection C(network_cli). See the L(EOS Platform Options,../network/user_guide/platform_eos.html).

Examples

# Using merged

#   channel-group 5 mode on

# Using parsed:

# parsed.cfg
# interface Ethernet1
#   channel-group 5 mode on
# interface Ethernet2
#   channel-group 5 mode on

- name: Use parsed to convert native configs to structured data
  arista.eos.lag_interfaces:
    running_config: "{{ lookup('file', 'parsed.cfg') }}"
    state: parsed

# Output:
#   parsed:
#     - name: Port-Channel5
