Synopsis ¶

This module provides declarative management of a Layer-2 interface on Juniper JUNOS devices.

Requirements ¶

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

ncclient (>=v0.6.4)

Parameters ¶

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary				A dictionary of Layer-2 interface options
	access dictionary			Configure the interface as a Layer 2 access mode.
		vlan string		Configure the access VLAN ID.
	enhanced_layer boolean		Choices: no yes	True if your device has Enhanced Layer 2 Software (ELS). If the l2 configuration is under `interface-mode` the value is True else if the l2 configuration is under `port-mode` value is False
	name string / required			Full name of interface, e.g. ge-0/0/1.
	trunk dictionary			Configure the interface as a Layer 2 trunk mode.
		allowed_vlans list		List of VLANs to be configured in trunk port. It's used as the VLAN range to ADD or REMOVE from the trunk.
		native_vlan string		Native VLAN to be configured in trunk port. It is used as the trunk native VLAN ID.
	unit integer			Logical interface number. Value of `unit` should be of type integer.
state string			Choices: merged ← replaced overridden deleted	The state of the configuration after module completion

Notes ¶

Note

This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.
Tested against vSRX JUNOS version 18.4R1.
This module works with connection netconf. See the Junos OS Platform Options.
