.. _vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan_module: ******************* vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan ******************* **Manage VLANs on VyOS network devices** Version added: 1.0.0 .. contents:: :local: :depth: 1 Synopsis -------- - This module provides declarative management of VLANs on VyOS network devices. Parameters ---------- .. raw:: html
Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
address
-
Configure Virtual interface address.
aggregate
-
List of VLANs definitions.
associated_interfaces
-
This is a intent option and checks the operational state of the for given vlan name for associated interfaces. If the value in the associated_interfaces does not match with the operational state of vlan on device it will result in failure.
delay
-
Default:
10
Delay the play should wait to check for declarative intent params values.
interfaces
- / required
List of interfaces that should be associated to the VLAN.
name
-
Name of the VLAN.
provider
dictionary
Deprecated
Starting with Ansible 2.5 we recommend using connection: network_cli.
For more information please see the Network Guide.

A dict object containing connection details.
host
string / required
Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport. The value of host is used as the destination address for the transport.
password
string
Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD will be used instead.
port
integer
Default:
22
Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device.
ssh_keyfile
path
Specifies the SSH key to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is the path to the key used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE will be used instead.
timeout
integer
Default:
10
Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error.
username
string
Configures the username to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_USERNAME will be used instead.

Notes ----- .. note:: - Tested against VyOS 1.1.8 (helium). - This module works with connection ``network_cli``. See `the VyOS OS Platform Options <../network/user_guide/platform_vyos.html>`_. - For more information on using Ansible to manage network devices see the :ref:`Ansible Network Guide ` Examples -------- .. code-block:: yaml+jinja - name: Create vlan vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan: vlan_id: 100 name: vlan-100 interfaces: eth1 state: present - name: Add interfaces to VLAN vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan: vlan_id: 100 interfaces: - eth1 - eth2 - name: Configure virtual interface address vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan: vlan_id: 100 interfaces: eth1 address: 172.26.100.37/24 - name: vlan interface config + intent vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan: vlan_id: 100 interfaces: eth0 associated_interfaces: - eth0 - name: vlan intent check vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan: vlan_id: 100 associated_interfaces: - eth3 - eth4 - name: Delete vlan vyos.vyos.vyos_vlan: vlan_id: 100 interfaces: eth1 state: absent Return Values ------------- Common return values are documented `here `_, the following are the fields unique to this module: .. raw:: html
Key Returned Description
commands
list
always
The list of configuration mode commands to send to the device

Sample:
['set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 100 description VLAN 100', 'set interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 100 address 172.26.100.37/24', 'delete interfaces ethernet eth1 vif 100']
