Why: Updated modules released with more functionality
Alternative: Use junipernetworks.junos.junos_lldp_global instead.

Synopsis ¶

This module provides declarative management of LLDP service on Juniper JUNOS network devices.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

ncclient (>=v0.5.2)

Parameters ¶

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
active boolean		Choices: no yes ←	Specifies whether or not the configuration is active or deactivated
hold_multiplier integer			Specify the number of seconds that LLDP information is held before it is discarded. The multiplier value is used in combination with the `interval` value.
interval integer			Frequency at which LLDP advertisements are sent (in seconds).
provider dictionary			Deprecated Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using `connection: network_cli` or `connection: netconf`. For more information please see the Junos OS Platform Options guide. A dict object containing connection details.
	host string		Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport. The value of host is used as the destination address for the transport.
	password string		Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD` will be used instead.
	port integer		Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device. The port value will default to the well known SSH port of 22 (for `transport=cli`) or port 830 (for `transport=netconf`) device.
	ssh_keyfile path		Specifies the SSH key to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is the path to the key used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE` will be used instead.
	timeout integer		Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error.
	transport string	Choices: cli netconf ←	Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device.
	username string		Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable `ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME` will be used instead.
state string		Choices: present ← absent enabled disabled	Value of `present` ensures given LLDP configuration is present on device and LLDP is enabled, for value of `absent` LLDP configuration is deleted and LLDP is in disabled state. Value `enabled` ensures LLDP protocol is enabled and LLDP configuration if any is configured on remote device, for value of `disabled` it ensures LLDP protocol is disabled any LLDP configuration if any is still present.
transmit_delay integer			Specify the number of seconds the device waits before sending advertisements to neighbors after a change is made in local system.

Notes ¶

Note

This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.
Tested against vSRX JUNOS version 15.1X49-D15.4, vqfx-10000 JUNOS Version 15.1X53-D60.4.
Recommended connection is netconf. See the Junos OS Platform Options.
This module also works with local connections for legacy playbooks.
For information on using CLI and netconf see the Junos OS Platform Options guide
