Notes
-----
.. note::
- Tested against NXOSv 7.3.(0)D1(1) on VIRL
- VRRP feature needs to be enabled first on the system.
- SVIs must exist before using this module.
- Interface must be a L3 port before using this module.
- ``state=absent`` removes the VRRP group if it exists on the device.
- VRRP cannot be configured on loopback interfaces.
- 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>`_.
Examples
--------
.. code-block:: yaml
- name: Ensure vrrp group 100 and vip 10.1.100.1 is on vlan10
cisco.nxos.nxos_vrrp:
interface: vlan10
group: 100
vip: 10.1.100.1
- name: Ensure removal of the vrrp group config
cisco.nxos.nxos_vrrp:
interface: vlan10
group: 100
vip: 10.1.100.1
state: absent
- name: Re-config with more params
cisco.nxos.nxos_vrrp:
interface: vlan10
group: 100
vip: 10.1.100.1
preempt: false
priority: 130
authentication: AUTHKEY
