cisco.iosxr.iosxr_lag_interfaces – LAG interfaces resource module

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_lag_interfaces.

New in version 1.0.0: of cisco.iosxr

Synopsis

  • This module manages the attributes of LAG/Ether-Bundle interfaces on IOS-XR devices.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
config
list / elements=dictionary
A provided Link Aggregation Group (LAG) configuration.
links
dictionary
This dict contains configurable options related to LAG/Ether-Bundle links.
max_active
integer
Specifies the limit on the number of links that can be active in the LAG/Ether-Bundle.
Refer to vendor documentation for valid values.
min_active
integer
Specifies the minimum number of active links needed to bring up the LAG/Ether-Bundle.
Refer to vendor documentation for valid values.
load_balancing_hash
string
    Choices:
  • dst-ip
  • src-ip
Specifies the hash function used for traffic forwarded over the LAG/Ether-Bundle.
Option 'dst-ip' uses the destination IP as the hash function.
Option 'src-ip' uses the source IP as the hash function.
members
list / elements=dictionary
List of member interfaces for the LAG/Ether-Bundle.
member
string
Name of the member interface.
mode
string
    Choices:
  • on
  • active
  • passive
  • inherit
Specifies the mode of the operation for the member interface.
Mode 'active' runs LACP in active mode.
Mode 'on' does not run LACP over the port.
Mode 'passive' runs LACP in passive mode over the port.
Mode 'inherit' runs LACP as configured in the bundle.
mode
string
    Choices:
  • on
  • active
  • passive
LAG mode.
Mode 'active' runs LACP in active mode over the port.
Mode 'on' does not run LACP over the port.
Mode 'passive' runs LACP in passive mode over the port.
name
string / required
Name/Identifier of the LAG/Ether-Bundle to configure.
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 int.
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
  • parsed
  • rendered
  • gathered
The state of the configuration after module completion.
