state:
    choices:
    - present
    - absent
    default: present
    description:
    - State of the configuration values in the device's current active configuration.  When
      set to I(present), the values should be configured in the device active configuration
      and when set to I(absent) the values should not be in the device active configuration

active:
    default: true
    description:
    - Specifies whether or not the configuration is active or deactivated
    type: bool

hostname:
    description:
    - Configure the device hostname parameter. This option takes an ASCII string value.

    suboptions:
      host:
        description:
        - Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over

        type: str
      password:
        description:
        - Specifies the password to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device.   This
          value is used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value is not specified
          in the task, the value of environment variable C(ANSIBLE_NET_PASSWORD) will
          be used instead.
        type: str
      port:
        description:
        - Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device.  The
