Synopsis

• This module manages Global Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) settings on IOS-XR devices.

Parameters

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
config dictionary				The provided global LLDP configuration.
	holdtime integer			Specifies the holdtime (in sec) to be sent in packets.
	reinit integer			Specifies the delay (in sec) for LLDP initialization on any interface.
	subinterfaces boolean		Choices: no yes	Enable or disable LLDP over sub-interfaces.
	timer integer			Specifies the rate at which LLDP packets are sent (in sec).
	tlv_select dictionary			Specifies the LLDP TLVs to enable or disable.
		management_address boolean	Choices: no yes	Enable or disable management address TLV.
		port_description boolean	Choices: no yes	Enable or disable port description TLV.
		system_capabilities boolean	Choices: no yes	Enable or disable system capabilities TLV.
		system_description boolean	Choices: no yes	Enable or disable system description TLV.
		system_name boolean	Choices: no yes	Enable or disable system name TLV.
running_config string				This option is used only with state parsed. The value of this option should be the output received from the IOS-XR device by executing the command show running-config lldp. The state parsed reads the configuration from running_config option and transforms it into Ansible structured data as per the resource module's argspec and the value is then returned in the parsed key within the result.
state string			Choices: merged ← replaced deleted parsed gathered rendered overridden	The state of the configuration after module completion.

Notes

Note

• This module works with connection network_cli. See the IOS-XR Platform Options.

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key	Returned	Description
after dictionary	when changed	The configuration as structured data after module completion. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above.
before dictionary	always	The configuration as structured data prior to module invocation. Sample: The configuration returned will always be in the same format of the parameters above.
commands list	always	The set of commands pushed to the remote device. Sample: ['lldp subinterfaces enable', 'lldp holdtime 100', 'no lldp tlv-select management-address disable']
