Notes
-----
.. note::
- Since responses from the device are always read with surrounding whitespaces stripped, tasks that configure banners with preceeding or trailing whitespaces will not be idempotent.
- Limited Support for Cisco MDS
- 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: configure the exec banner
cisco.nxos.nxos_banner:
banner: exec

that contains a multiline
string
