Synopsis

  • This module manages link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) attributes of interfaces on Juniper JUNOS devices.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

config

list / elements=dictionary

The list of link layer discovery protocol interface attribute configurations

enabled

boolean

This is a boolean value to control disabling of LLDP on the interface name

Choices:

  • false

  • true

name

string / required

Name of the interface LLDP needs to be configured on.

running_config

string

This option is used only with state parsed.

The value of this option should be the output received from the Junos device by executing the command show protocols lldp.

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

The state of the configuration after module completion.

Choices:

  • "merged" ← (default)

  • "replaced"

  • "overridden"

  • "deleted"

  • "gathered"

  • "rendered"

  • "parsed"
