-BFD role
-===========
-
-This role facilitates the configuration of bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) global attributes. It specifically enables configuration of BFD interval, min_rx, multiplier, and role. This role is abstracted for Dell EMC PowerSwitch platforms running Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10.
-
-The BFD role requires an SSH connection for connectivity to a Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10 device. You can use any of the built-in OS connection variables.
-
-Role variables
---------------
-
-- Role is abstracted using the `ansible_network_os` variable that can take `dellemc.os10.os10` as the value
-- If `os10_cfg_generate` is set to true, the variable generates the role configuration commands in a file
-- Any role variable with a corresponding state variable set to absent negates the configuration of that variable
-- Setting an empty value for any variable negates the corresponding configuration
-- Variables and values are case-sensitive

-**os10_bfd keys**
-
-| Key | Type | Description | Support |
-|------------|---------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------|
-| ``bfd`` | dictionary | Configures global BFD parameters (see ``bfd.*``) | os10 |
-| ``bfd.interval`` | integer | Configures the time interval in ms (100 to 1000) | os10 |
-| ``bfd.min_rx`` | integer | Configures maximum waiting time for receiving control packets from BFD peers in ms (100 to 1000)| os10 |
-| ``bfd.multiplier`` | integer | Configures the maximum number of consecutive packets that are not received from BFD peers before session state changes to Down (3 to 50) | os10 |
-| ``bfd.role`` | string: passive,active\* | Configures the BFD role | os10 |
-| ``bfd.state`` | string: absent,present\* | Removes the global BFD if set to absent | os10 |
-
-> **NOTE**: Asterisk (\*) denotes the default value if none is specified.

-Connection variables
-********************
-
-Ansible Dell EMC network roles require connection information to establish communication with the nodes in your inventory. This information can exist in the Ansible *group_vars* or *host_vars* directories, or inventory or in the playbook itself.
-
-| Key | Required | Choices | Description |
-|-------------|----------|------------|-----------------------------------------------------|
-| ``ansible_host`` | yes | | Specifies the hostname or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport |
-| ``ansible_port`` | no | | Specifies the port used to build the connection to the remote device; if value is unspecified, the `ANSIBLE_REMOTE_PORT` option is used; it defaults to 22 |
-| ``ansible_ssh_user`` | no | | Specifies the username that authenticates the CLI login for the connection to the remote device; if value is unspecified, the `ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER` environment variable value is used |
-| ``ansible_ssh_pass`` | no | | Specifies the password that authenticates the connection to the remote device |
-| ``ansible_become`` | no | yes, no\* | Instructs the module to enter privileged mode on the remote device before sending any commands; if value is unspecified, the `ANSIBLE_BECOME` environment variable value is used, and the device attempts to execute all commands in non-privileged mode |
-| ``ansible_become_method`` | no | enable, sudo\* | Instructs the module to allow the become method to be specified for handling privilege escalation; if value is unspecified, the `ANSIBLE_BECOME_METHOD` environment variable value is used |
-| ``ansible_become_pass`` | no | | Specifies the password to use if required to enter privileged mode on the remote device; if ``ansible_become`` is set to no this key is not applicable |
-| ``ansible_network_os`` | yes | os10, null\* | Loads the correct terminal and cliconf plugins to communicate with the remote device |
-
-> **NOTE**: Asterisk (\*) denotes the default value if none is specified.

-Example playbook
-----------------
-
-This example uses the *os10_bfd role* to completely set the global BFD attributes. It creates a *hosts* file with the switch details and corresponding variables. The hosts file should define the `ansible_network_os` variable with corresponding Dell EMC OS10 name.
-
-When `os10_cfg_generate` is set to true, the variable generates the configuration commands as a .part file in *build_dir* path. By default, the variable is set to false. The bfd role writes a simple playbook that only references the *os10_bfd* role. By including the role, you automatically get access to all of the tasks to configure BFD feature.
-
-**Sample hosts file**
-
- leaf1 ansible_host= <ip_address>
-
-**Sample host_vars/leaf1**
-
- hostname: leaf1
- ansible_become: yes
- ansible_become_method: xxxxx
- ansible_become_pass: xxxxx
- ansible_ssh_user: xxxxx
- ansible_ssh_pass: xxxxx
- ansible_network_os: dellemc.os10.os10
- build_dir: ../temp/os10
-
- os10_bfd:
- bfd:
- interval: 100
- min_rx: 100
- multiplier: 3
- role: "active"
- state: "present"
-
-**Simple playbook to setup bfd — leaf.yaml**
-
- - hosts: leaf1
- roles:
- - dellemc.os10.os10_bfd
-
-**Run**
-
- ansible-playbook -i hosts leaf.yaml
