Note

This plugin is part of the cisco.iosxr collection (version 1.2.1).

To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.iosxr.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.iosxr.iosxr_acl_interfaces.

New in version 1.0.0: of cisco.iosxr

Synopsis

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

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults 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
    Choices:
  • in
  • out
Specifies the direction of packets that the ACL will be applied on.
name
string / required
Specifies the name of the IPv4/IPv6 ACL for the interface.
afi
string / required
    Choices:
  • ipv4
  • ipv6
Specifies the AFI for the ACL(s) to be configured on this interface.
name
string / required
Name/Identifier for the interface
running_config
string
This option is used only with state parsed.
The value of this option should be the output received from the IOS-XR device by executing the command show running-config interface.
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
  • overridden
  • deleted
  • gathered
  • parsed
  • rendered
The state the configuration should be left in.
