ce_eth_trunk – Manages Eth-Trunk interfaces on HUAWEI CloudEngine switches

New in version 2.4.

Synopsis

  • Manages Eth-Trunk specific configuration parameters on HUAWEI CloudEngine switches.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
force
boolean
    Choices:
  • no ←
  • yes
When true it forces Eth-Trunk members to match what is declared in the members param. This can be used to remove members.
hash_type
-
    Choices:
  • src-dst-ip
  • src-dst-mac
  • enhanced
  • dst-ip
  • dst-mac
  • src-ip
  • src-mac
Hash algorithm used for load balancing among Eth-Trunk member interfaces.
members
-
List of interfaces that will be managed in a given Eth-Trunk. The interface name must be full name.
min_links
-
Specifies the minimum number of Eth-Trunk member links in the Up state. The value is an integer ranging from 1 to the maximum number of interfaces that can be added to a Eth-Trunk interface.
mode
-
    Choices:
  • manual
  • lacp-dynamic
  • lacp-static
Specifies the working mode of an Eth-Trunk interface.
state
-
    Choices:
  • present ←
  • absent
Manage the state of the resource.
trunk_id
- / required
Eth-Trunk interface number. The value is an integer. The value range depends on the assign forward eth-trunk mode command. When 256 is specified, the value ranges from 0 to 255. When 512 is specified, the value ranges from 0 to 511. When 1024 is specified, the value ranges from 0 to 1023.

Notes

Note

  • state=absent removes the Eth-Trunk config and interface if it already exists. If members to be removed are not explicitly passed, all existing members (if any), are removed, and Eth-Trunk removed.
  • Members must be a list.
  • This module requires the netconf system service be enabled on the remote device being managed.
  • Recommended connection is netconf.
  • This module also works with local connections for legacy playbooks.
