| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| config list / elements=dictionary | A dictionary of Layer-3 interface options | |||
| ipv4 list / elements=dictionary | IPv4 address to be set for the Layer-3 interface mentioned in name option. The address format is <ipv4 address>/<mask>, the mask is number in range 0-32 eg. 192.168.0.1/24. | |||
| address string | Configures the IPv4 address for Interface. | |||
| dhcp_client integer | Configures and specifies client-id to use over DHCP ip. Note, This option shall work only when dhcp is configured as IP. GigabitEthernet interface number | |||
| dhcp_hostname string | Configures and specifies value for hostname option over DHCP ip. Note, This option shall work only when dhcp is configured as IP. | |||
| secondary boolean |
| Configures the IP address as a secondary address. | ||
| ipv6 list / elements=dictionary | IPv6 address to be set for the Layer-3 interface mentioned in name option. The address format is <ipv6 address>/<mask>, the mask is number in range 0-128 eg. fd5d:12c9:2201:1::1/64 | |||
| address string | Configures the IPv6 address for Interface. | |||
| name string / required | Full name of the interface excluding any logical unit number, i.e. GigabitEthernet0/1. | |||
| running_config string | This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the IOS device by executing the command show running-config | section ^interface. 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 the configuration should be left in The states rendered, gathered and parsed does not perform any change on the device. The state rendered will transform the configuration in config option to platform specific CLI commands which will be returned in the rendered key within the result. For state rendered active connection to remote host is not required.The state gathered will fetch the running configuration from device and transform it into structured data in the format as per the resource module argspec and the value is returned in the gathered key within the result. The state parsed reads the configuration from running_config option and transforms it into JSON format as per the resource module parameters and the value is returned in the parsed key within the result. The value of running_config option should be the same format as the output of command show running-config | section ^interface executed on device. For state parsed active connection to remote host is not required. | ||

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
| Key | Returned | Description |
|---|---|---|
| after list / elements=string | when changed | The configuration as structured data after module completion. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above. |
| before list / elements=string | always | The configuration as structured data prior to module invocation. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above. |
| commands list / elements=string | always | The set of commands pushed to the remote device Sample: ['interface GigabitEthernet0/1', 'ip address 192.168.0.2 255.255.255.0'] |
