running_config

string

This option is used only with state parsed.

The value of this option should be the output received from the IOS-XR device by executing the command show running-config router ospf’.

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

The state the configuration should be left in.

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key

Description

after

list / elements=string

The resulting configuration model invocation.

Returned: when changed

Sample: ["The configuration returned will always be in the same format\n of the parameters above.\n"]

before

list / elements=string

The configuration prior to the model invocation.

Returned: always

Sample: ["The configuration returned will always be in the same format\n of the parameters above.\n"]

commands

list / elements=string

The set of commands pushed to the remote device.

Returned: always

Sample: ["router ospf LAB3 area 0.0.0.3 interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/0 cost 20", "router ospf LAB3 area 0.0.0.3 interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/0 authentication message-digest"]

gathered

list / elements=string

Facts about the network resource gathered from the remote device as structured data.

Returned: when state is gathered

Sample: ["This output will always be in the same format as the module argspec.\n"]

parsed

list / elements=string

The device native config provided in running_config option parsed into structured data as per module argspec.

Returned: when state is parsed

Sample: ["This output will always be in the same format as the module argspec.\n"]

rendered

list / elements=string

The provided configuration in the task rendered in device-native format (offline).

Returned: when state is rendered

Sample: ["router ospf LAB3 area 0.0.0.3 interface GigabitEthernet 0/0/0/0 cost 20"]
