collections:
- name: community.general
version: 0.1.1Sends arbitrary commands to a Extreme Ironware node and returns the results read from the device. This module includes a I(wait_for) argument that will cause the module to wait for a specific condition before returning or timing out if the condition is not met.
- ironware_command:
commands:
- show version
- ironware_command:
commands:
- show interfaces brief wide
- show mpls vll
match:
choices:
- any
- all
default: all
description:
- The I(match) argument is used in conjunction with the I(wait_for) argument to specify
the match policy. If the value is set to C(all) then all conditionals in the I(wait_for)
must be satisfied. If the value is set to C(any) then only one of the values must
be satisfied.
retries:
default: 10
description:
- Specifies the number of retries a command should by tried before it is considered
failed. The command is run on the target device every retry and evaluated against
the I(wait_for) conditions.
commands:
description:
- List of commands to send to the remote device over the configured provider. The
resulting output from the command is returned. If the I(wait_for) argument is provided,
the module is not returned until the condition is satisfied or the number of retires
as expired.
required: true
interval:
default: 1
description:
- Configures the interval in seconds to wait between retries of the command. If the
command does not pass the specified conditions, the interval indicates how long
to wait before trying the command again.
provider:
description:
- B(Deprecated)
- 'Starting with Ansible 2.7 we recommend using C(connection: network_cli) and C(become:
yes).'
- For more information please see the L(IronWare Platform Options guide, ../network/user_guide/platform_ironware.html).
- HORIZONTALLINE
- A dict object containing connection details.
suboptions:
auth_pass:
description:
- Specifies the password to use if required to enter privileged mode on the remote
device. If I(authorize) is false, then this argument does nothing. If the value
is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable C(ANSIBLE_NET_AUTH_PASS)
will be used instead.
type: str
authorize:
default: false
description:
- Instructs the module to enter privileged mode on the remote device before sending
any commands. If not specified, the device will attempt to execute all commands
in non-privileged mode. If the value is not specified in the task, the value
of environment variable C(ANSIBLE_NET_AUTHORIZE) will be used instead.
type: bool
host:
description:
- Specifies the DNS host name or address for connecting to the remote device over
the specified transport. The value of host is used as the destination address
for the transport.
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:
default: 22
description:
- Specifies the port to use when building the connection to the remote device.
type: int
ssh_keyfile:
description:
- Specifies the SSH key to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This
value is the path to the key used to authenticate the SSH session. If the value
is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable C(ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE)
will be used instead.
type: path
timeout:
default: 10
description:
- Specifies idle timeout in seconds for the connection, in seconds. Useful if
the console freezes before continuing. For example when saving configurations.
type: int
username:
description:
- Configures the username 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_USERNAME)
will be used instead.
type: str
type: dict
wait_for:
description:
- List of conditions to evaluate against the output of the command. The task will
wait for each condition to be true before moving forward. If the conditional is
not true within the configured number of retries, the task fails. See examples.
authorize:
default: false
description:

- 'Starting with Ansible 2.7 we recommend using C(connection: network_cli) and C(become:
yes).'
- For more information please see the L(IronWare Platform Options guide, ../network/user_guide/platform_ironware.html).
- HORIZONTALLINE
- Instructs the module to enter privileged mode on the remote device before sending
any commands. If not specified, the device will attempt to execute all commands
in non-privileged mode. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of
environment variable C(ANSIBLE_NET_AUTHORIZE) will be used instead.
