Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
config dictionary | A list of link layer discovery configurations | ||||
holdtime integer | Amount of time the receiving device should hold the information (in seconds) | ||||
port_id integer |
| This attribute defines if the interface names should be advertised in the long(0) or short(1) form. | |||
reinit integer | Amount of time to delay the initialization of LLDP on any interface (in seconds) | ||||
timer integer | Frequency at which LLDP updates need to be transmitted (in seconds) | ||||
tlv_select dictionary | This attribute can be used to specify the TLVs that need to be sent and received in the LLDP packets. By default, all TLVs are advertised | ||||
dcbxp boolean |
| Used to specify the Data Center Bridging Exchange Protocol TLV | |||
management_address dictionary | Used to specify the management address in TLV messages | ||||
v4 boolean |
| Management address with TLV v4 | |||
v6 boolean |
| Management address with TLV v6 | |||
port dictionary | Used to manage port based attributes in TLV messages | ||||
description boolean |
| Used to specify the port description TLV | |||
vlan boolean |
| Used to specify the port VLAN ID TLV | |||
power_management boolean |
| Used to specify IEEE 802.3 DTE Power via MDI TLV | |||
system dictionary | Used to manage system based attributes in TLV messages | ||||
capabilities boolean |
| Used to specify the system capabilities TLV | |||
description boolean |
| Used to specify the system description TLV | |||
name boolean |

running_config string | This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the NX-OS device by executing the command show running-config | include lldp. 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 |
