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	dellos10, null*	This value is used to load the correct terminal and cliconf plugins to communicate with the remote device.

NOTE: Asterisk (*) denotes the default value if none is specified.

Dependencies

xmltodict library should be installed to get show command output in dict format from xml. To install the package use the pip install xmltodict command.

Example playbook

This example uses the ansible-role-dellos-fabric-summary role to completely get the show attributes. It creates a hosts file with the switch details and corresponding variables.

The ansible-role-dellos-fabric-summary role has a simple playbook that only references the ansible-role-dellos-fabric-summary role.

Sample hosts file

    site1-spine1 ansible_host=10.11.180.21 ansible_ssh_user=admin ansible_ssh_pass=admin ansible_network_os=dellos10
    site1-spine2 ansible_host=10.11.180.22 ansible_ssh_user=admin ansible_ssh_pass=admin ansible_network_os=dellos10
    site2-spine1 ansible_host=10.11.180.23 ansible_ssh_user=admin ansible_ssh_pass=admin ansible_network_os=dellos10
    site2-spine2 ansible_host=10.11.180.24 ansible_ssh_user=admin ansible_ssh_pass=admin ansible_network_os=dellos10
    [spine]
    site1-spine1
    site1-spine2
    site2-spine1
    site2-spine2
    [LeafAndSpineSwitch:children]
    spine

Sample host_vars/site1-spine1

cli:
   host: "{{ ansible_host }}"
   username: "{{ dellos10_cli_user | default('admin') }}"
   password: "{{ dellos10_cli_pass | default('admin') }}"
   timeout: 300
ansible_ssh_user: admin
ansible_ssh_pass: admin
ansible_network_os: dellos10
