cisco.ios.ios_acl_interfaces – ACL interfaces resource module

Note

This plugin is part of the cisco.ios collection (version 2.6.0).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.ios.

To use it in a playbook, specify: cisco.ios.ios_acl_interfaces.

New in version 1.0.0: of cisco.ios

Synopsis 

This module configures and manages the access-control (ACL) attributes of interfaces on IOS platforms.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters 

Parameter	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary	A dictionary of ACL interfaces options
access_groups list / elements=dictionary	Specify access-group for IP access list (standard or extended).
acls list / elements=dictionary	Specifies the ACLs for the provided AFI.
direction string / required	Specifies the direction of packets that the ACL will be applied on. With one direction already assigned, other acl direction cannot be same. Choices: in out
name string / required	Specifies the name of the IPv4/IPv4 ACL for the interface.
afi string / required	Specifies the AFI for the ACLs to be configured on this interface. Choices: ipv4 ipv6
name string / required	Full name of the interface excluding any logical unit number, i.e. GigabitEthernet0/1.
running_config string	The module, by default, will connect to the remote device and retrieve the current running-config to use as a base for comparing against the contents of source. There are times when it is not desirable to have the task get the current running-config for every task in a playbook. The running_config argument allows the implementer to pass in the configuration to use as the base config for comparison. This value of this option should be the output received from device by executing command.
state string	The state the configuration should be left in The states rendered, gathered and parsed does not perform any change on the device. The state rendered will transform the configuration in `config` option to platform specific CLI commands which will be returned in the rendered key within the result. For state rendered active connection to remote host is not required. The state gathered will fetch the running configuration from device and transform it into structured data in the format as per the resource module argspec and the value is returned in the gathered key within the result. The state parsed reads the configuration from `running_config` option and transforms it into JSON format as per the resource module parameters and the value is returned in the parsed key within the result. The value of `running_config` option should be the same format as the output of command show running-config \| include ip route\|ipv6 route executed on device. For state parsed active connection to remote host is not required. Choices: merged ← (default) replaced overridden deleted gathered parsed rendered
