routing_interface

list / elements=string

Routing interface name for this routing-instance.

type

string

Specify instance type.

Choices:

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 routing-instances.

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 the configuration should be left in.

Choices:

  • "merged" ← (default)

  • "replaced"

  • "overridden"

  • "deleted"

  • "parsed"

  • "gathered"

  • "rendered"

Notes

Note

  • This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the device being managed.

  • This module works with connection netconf. See the Junos OS Platform Options.

  • Tested against JunOS v18.4R1
