Synopsis

  • This module provides declarative management of VRFs on Lenovo CNOS network devices.

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

aggregate

string

List of VRFs contexts

associated_interfaces

string

This is a intent option and checks the operational state of the for given vrf name for associated interfaces. If the value in the associated_interfaces does not match with the operational state of vrf interfaces on device it will result in failure.

delay

string

Time in seconds to wait before checking for the operational state on remote device. This wait is applicable for operational state arguments.

Default: 10

interfaces

string

Identifies the set of interfaces that should be configured in the VRF. Interfaces must be routed interfaces in order to be placed into a VRF. The name of interface should be in expanded format and not abbreviated.

name

string / required

Name of the VRF.

purge

boolean

Purge VRFs not defined in the aggregate parameter.

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

rd

string

Route distinguisher of the VRF

state

string

State of the VRF configuration.

Choices:

  • "present" ← (default)

  • "absent"

Notes

Note

  • Tested against CNOS 10.9.1
