Notes
-----
.. note::
- Tested against NXOSv 7.3.(0)D1(1) on VIRL
- ``state=absent`` removes the whole BGP ASN configuration when ``vrf=default`` or the whole VRF instance within the BGP process when using a different VRF.
- Default when supported restores params default value.
- Configuring global params is only permitted if ``vrf=default``.
- For information on using CLI and NX-API see the :ref:`NXOS Platform Options guide <nxos_platform_options>`
- For more information on using Ansible to manage network devices see the :ref:`Ansible Network Guide <network_guide>`
- For more information on using Ansible to manage Cisco devices see the `Cisco integration page <https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/cisco>`_.

- name: Configure a simple ASN
cisco.nxos.nxos_bgp:
