cisco.ios.ios_ntp_global module – Resource module to configure NTP.
Note
This module is part of the cisco.ios collection (version 3.3.2).
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_ntp_global.
New in cisco.ios 2.5.0
Synopsis
This module provides declarative management of ntp on Cisco IOS devices.
Note
This module has a corresponding action plugin.

This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the IOS device by executing the command show running-config | section ^ntp. The state parsed reads the configuration from |
|
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 The states replaced and overridden have identical behaviour for this module. 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 Choices:
