Synopsis

• This module manages Global Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) on Arista EOS devices.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
config dictionary				LACP global options.
	system dictionary			LACP system options.
		priority integer		The system priority to use in LACP negotiations. Lower value is higher priority. Refer to vendor documentation for valid values.
running_config string				This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the EOS device by executing the command show running-config | section ^lacp. 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 deleted parsed rendered gathered	The state of the configuration after module completion.

Notes

Note

• Tested against Arista EOS 4.20.10M

• This module works with connection network_cli. See the EOS Platform Options.

# -------------
# veos# show running-config | include lacp
# lacp system-priority 10

- name: Replace device global LACP attributes with provided attributes

      system:
        priority: 20

# veos# show running-config | include lacp
# lacp system-priority 20
#


# Using deleted

# Before state:
# -------------
# veos# show running-config | include lacp
# lacp system-priority 10

- name: Delete global LACP attributes
  arista.eos.eos_lacp:

#   - "lacp system-priority 20"
#

# Using parsed:

# parsed.cfg
# lacp system-priority 20

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

# Output:
# parsed:
#   system:
#     priority: 20

# Using gathered:
# nathive config:
# -------------
