Parameters

Parameter

Comments

asNumber

Notes

Note

  • SDK Method used are appliance.Appliance.update_network_appliance_vpn_bgp,

  • Paths used are put /networks/{networkId}/appliance/vpn/bgp,

  • Does not support check_mode

  • The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins, but instead the embedded connection manager from Cisco DNAC SDK

  • The parameters starting with dnac_ are used by the Cisco DNAC Python SDK to establish the connection
