Inputs

    
gather_subset:
    default:
    - '!config'
    description:
    - When supplied, this argument will restrict the facts collected to a given subset.  Possible
      values for this argument include all, hardware, config, and interfaces.  Can specify
      a list of values to include a larger subset.  Values can also be used with an initial
      C(M(!)) to specify that a specific subset should not be collected.
    required: false
    type: list

gather_network_resources:
    description:
    - When supplied, this argument will restrict the facts collected to a given subset.
      Possible values for this argument include all and the resources like interfaces,
      vlans etc. Can specify a list of values to include a larger subset. Values can also
      be used with an initial C(M(!)) to specify that a specific subset should not be
      collected. Valid subsets are 'all', 'lldp_global'.
