-# xSTP role
-
-This role facilitates the configuration of xSTP attributes. It supports multiple version of spanning-tree protocol (STP), rapid spanning-tree (RSTP), rapid per-VLAN spanning-tree (Rapid PVST+), multiple spanning-tree (MST), and per-VLAN spanning-tree (PVST). It supports the configuration of bridge priority, enabling and disabling spanning-tree, creating and deleting instances, and mapping virtual LAN (VLAN) to instances. This role is abstracted for Dell EMC PowerSwitch platforms running Dell EMC SmartFabric OS10.
-
-The xSTP 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
-- `os10_xstp` (dictionary) contains the hostname (dictionary)
-- Hostname is the value of the *hostname* variable that corresponds to the name of the device
-- Any role variable with a corresponding state variable set to absent negates the configuration of that variable
-- Setting an empty value to any variable negates the corresponding configuration
-- Variables and values are case-sensitive

-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_BECOM`E 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_xstp* role to configure different variants of spanning-tree. Based on the type of STP and defined objects, VLANs are associated and bridge priorities are assigned. It creates a *hosts* file with the switch details, and a *host_vars* file with connection variables. The corresponding role variables are defined in the *vars/main.yml* file at the role path.
-
-It writes a simple playbook that only references the *os10_xstp* role. By including the role, you automatically get access to all of the tasks to configure xSTP.
