## Installing this collection

You can install the VyOS collection with the Ansible Galaxy CLI:

    ansible-galaxy collection install vyos.vyos

You can also include it in a `requirements.yml` file and install it with `ansible-galaxy collection install -r requirements.yml`, using the format:

```yaml
---
collections:
  - name: vyos.vyos
```
## Using this collection


This collection includes [network resource modules](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/network/user_guide/network_resource_modules.html).

### Using modules from the VyOS collection in your playbooks

You can call modules by their Fully Qualified Collection Namespace (FQCN), such as `vyos.vyos.vyos_static_routes`.
The following example task replaces configuration changes in the existing configuration on a VyOS network device, using the FQCN:

```yaml
---
  - name: Replace device configurations of listed static routes with provided
      configurations
    register: result
    vyos.vyos.vyos_static_routes: &id001
      config:

        - address_families:

            - afi: ipv4
              routes:

                - dest: 192.0.2.32/28
                  blackhole_config:
                    distance: 2
                  next_hops:

                    - forward_router_address: 192.0.2.7

                    - forward_router_address: 192.0.2.8

                    - forward_router_address: 192.0.2.9
      state: replaced
```

**NOTE**: For Ansible 2.9, you may not see deprecation warnings when you run your playbooks with this collection. Use this documentation to track when a module is deprecated.
