arista.eos.eos_lag_interfaces module – LAG interfaces resource module

Note

This module is part of the arista.eos collection (version 6.2.2).

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 arista.eos.

To use it in a playbook, specify: arista.eos.eos_lag_interfaces.

New in arista.eos 1.0.0

Synopsis

• This module manages attributes of link aggregation groups on Arista EOS devices.

Aliases: lag_interfaces

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary	A list of link aggregation group configurations.
members list / elements=dictionary	Ethernet interfaces that are part of the group.
member string	Name of ethernet interface that is a member of the LAG.
mode string	LAG mode for this interface. Choices: "active" "on" "passive"
name string / required	Name of the port-channel interface of the link aggregation group (LAG) e.g., Port-Channel5.
running_config string	This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the EOS device by executing the command show running-config | section interfaces. 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" "rendered" "gathered" "parsed"

Notes

Note

• Tested against Arista EOS 4.24.6F

• This module works with connection network_cli. See the EOS Platform Options.
