eos_config

Synopsis

Added in version 1.0.0

The eos_config module evalues the current configuration for specific commands. If the commands are either present or absent (depending on the function argument, the eos_config module will configure the node using the command argument.

Options

parameter required default choices comments
command yes
    		Specifies the configuration command to send to the node if the expression does not evalute to true.
    (added in 1.0.0)
    regexp no
      		Specifies the expression to evalute the current node's running configuration. The value can be any valid regular expression. This optional argument will default to use the command argument if none is provided.
      (added in 1.1.0)
      section no
        		Restricts the configuration evaluation to a single configuration section. If the configuration section argument is not provided, then the global configuration is used.
