Synopsis

This module provides declarative management of VLANs on Ubiquiti Edgeswitch network devices.

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
aggregate string		List of VLANs definitions.
auto_exclude boolean	Choices: no yes	Each of the switch interfaces will be excluded from vlan_id unless defined in *_interfaces. This is a default setting for all switch interfaces.
auto_tag boolean	Choices: no yes	Each of the switch interfaces will be set to accept and transmit untagged frames for vlan_id unless defined in *_interfaces. This is a default setting for all switch interfaces.
auto_untag boolean	Choices: no yes	Each of the switch interfaces will be set to accept untagged frames and transmit them tagged for vlan_id unless defined in *_interfaces. This is a default setting for all switch interfaces.
excluded_interfaces string		List of interfaces that should be excluded of the VLAN. Accept range of interfaces.
name string		Name of the VLAN.
purge boolean	Choices: no ← yes	Purge VLANs not defined in the aggregate parameter.
state string	Choices: present ← absent	action on the VLAN configuration.
tagged_interfaces string		List of interfaces that should accept and transmit tagged frames for the VLAN. Accept range of interfaces.
untagged_interfaces string		List of interfaces that should accept untagged frames and transmit them tagged for the VLAN. Accept range of interfaces.
vlan_id string		ID of the VLAN. Range 1-4093.

Notes

Note

Tested against edgeswitch 1.7.4
This module use native Ubiquiti vlan syntax and does not support switchport compatibility syntax. For clarity, it is strongly advised to not use both syntaxes on the same interface.
Edgeswitch does not support deleting or changing name of VLAN 1
As auto_tag, auto_untag and auto_exclude are a kind of default setting for all interfaces, they are mutually exclusive

Examples

- name: Create vlan
  community.network.edgeswitch_vlan:
    vlan_id: 100
    name: voice
    action: present

- name: Add interfaces to VLAN
  community.network.edgeswitch_vlan:
    vlan_id: 100
    tagged_interfaces:
      - 0/1
      - 0/4-0/6

- name: Setup three vlans and delete the rest
  community.network.edgeswitch_vlan:
    purge: true
    aggregate:
      - { vlan_id: 1, name: default, auto_untag: true, excluded_interfaces: 0/45-0/48 }
      - { vlan_id: 100, name: voice, auto_tag: true }
      - { vlan_id: 200, name: video, auto_exclude: true, untagged_interfaces: 0/45-0/48, tagged_interfaces: 0/49 }

- name: Delete vlan
  community.network.edgeswitch_vlan:
    vlan_id: 100
    state: absent

Return Values

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

Key	Returned	Description
commands list / elements=string	always	The list of configuration mode commands to send to the device Sample: ['vlan database', 'vlan 100', 'vlan name 100 "test vlan"', 'exit', 'interface 0/1', 'vlan pvid 50', 'vlan participation include 50,100', 'vlan tagging 100', 'vlan participation exclude 200', 'no vlan tagging 200']
