Synopsis

This module provides declarative management of VLANs on Arista EOS network devices.

Note

This module has a corresponding action plugin.

Parameters

Parameter		Choices/Defaults	Comments
config list / elements=dictionary			A dictionary of VLANs options
	name string		Name of the VLAN.
	state string	Choices: active suspend	Operational state of the VLAN
	vlan_id integer / required		ID of the VLAN. Range 1-4094
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 vlan. 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
state string		Choices: merged ← replaced overridden deleted rendered gathered parsed	The state of the configuration after module completion

Notes

Note

Tested against Arista EOS 4.20.10M
This module works with connection network_cli. See the EOS Platform Options.
