    description:
    - The state of the configuration after module completion.
    - The state I(overridden) would override the configuration of all the VLANs on the
      device (including VLAN 1) with the provided configuration in the task. Use caution
      with this state.

        - fabricpath
        description:
        - Set vlan mode to classical ethernet or fabricpath. This is a valid option for

running_config:
    description:
    - This option is used only with state I(parsed).
    - The value of this option should be the output received from the NX-OS device by
      executing the commands B(show vlans | json-pretty) and B(show running-config | section
      ^vlan) in order and delimited by a line.
    - The state I(parsed) reads the configuration from C(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 I(parsed) key within the result.
