eos_lacp_interfaces – Manage Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) attributes of interfaces on Arista EOS devices

New in version 2.9.

Synopsis

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

Parameters

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary			A dictionary of LACP interfaces options.
	name string		Full name of the interface (i.e. Ethernet1).
	port_priority integer		LACP port priority for the interface. Range 1-65535.
	rate string	Choices: fast normal	Rate at which PDUs are sent by LACP. At fast rate LACP is transmitted once every 1 second. At normal rate LACP is transmitted every 30 seconds after the link is bundled.
state string		Choices: merged ← replaced overridden deleted	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.

Return Values

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

Key	Returned	Description
after list	when changed	The configuration as structured data after module completion. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above.
before list	always	The configuration as structured data prior to module invocation. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above.
commands list	always	The set of commands pushed to the remote device. Sample: ['interface Ethernet1', 'lacp rate fast']
