eos_ethernet

Synopsis

Added in version 1.0.0

The eos_ethernet module manages the interface configuration for physical Ethernet interfaces on EOS nodes.

Options

parameter required default choices comments
description no
    		Configures a one lne ASCII description for the interface. The EOS default value for description is None
    (added in 1.0.0)
    enable no True
    • True
    • False
    		 Configures the administrative state for the interface. Setting the value to true will adminstrative enable the interface and setting the value to false will administratively disable the interface. The EOS default value for enable is true
    (added in 1.0.0)
    flowcontrol_receive no
    • True
    • False
    		 Configures the flowcontrol receive value for the named Ethernet interface in EOS. If the value is configured true, then control receive is enabled (on). If the value is configured false then flowcontrol receive is disabled (off).
    (added in 1.0.0)
    flowcontrol_send no
    • True
    • False
    		 Configures the flowcontrol send value for the named Ethernet interface in EOS. If the value is configured true, then control send is enabled (on). If the value is configured false then flowcontrol send is disabled (off).
    (added in 1.0.0)
    name yes
      		The unique interface identifier name. The interface name must use the full interface name (no abbreviated names). For example, interfaces should be specified as Ethernet1 not Et1
      (added in 1.0.0)
      sflow no
        		Configures the adminstrative state of running sflow on the named Ethernet interface. If this value is true, then sflow is enabled on the interface and if this value is false, then sflow is disabled on this interface. The EOS default value for sflow is true
        (added in 1.0.0)

        Important

        Requires Arista EOS 4.13.7M or later with command API enabled

        Important

        Requires Python Client for eAPI 0.3.0 or later

        Examples


        - name: Ensure that Ethernet1/1 is administratively enabled
  eos_ethernet: name=Ethernet1/1 enable=yes

- name: Enable flowcontrol send and receive on Ethernet10
  eos_ethernet: name=Ethernet10 flowcontrol_send=yes flowcontrol_receive=yes

        Note

        All configuration is idempotent unless otherwise specified

        Note

        Supports eos metaparameters for using the eAPI transport

        Note

        Does not support stateful resource configuration.
