arista.eos.eos_acl_interfaces module – ACL interfaces resource module

Note

This module is part of the arista.eos collection (version 9.0.0).

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 arista.eos.

To use it in a playbook, specify: arista.eos.eos_acl_interfaces.

New in arista.eos 1.0.0

Synopsis

• This module manages adding and removing Access Control Lists (ACLs) from interfaces on devices running EOS software.

Aliases: acl_interfaces

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary	A dictionary of ACL options for interfaces.
access_groups list / elements=dictionary	Specifies ACLs attached to the interfaces.
acls list / elements=dictionary	Specifies the ACLs for the provided AFI.
direction string / required	Specifies the direction of packets that the ACL will be applied on. Choices: "in" "out"
name string / required	Specifies the name of the IPv4/IPv4 ACL for the interface.
afi string / required	Specifies the AFI for the ACL(s) to be configured on this interface. Choices: "ipv4" "ipv6"
name string / required	Name/Identifier for the interface.
running_config string	The module, by default, will connect to the remote device and retrieve the current running-config to use as a base for comparing against the contents of source. There are times when it is not desirable to have the task get the current running-config for every task in a playbook. The running_config argument allows the implementer to pass in the configuration to use as the base config for comparison. This value of this option should be the output received from device by executing command
state string	The state the configuration should be left in. Choices: "merged" ← (default) "replaced" "overridden" "deleted" "gathered" "parsed" "rendered"
