## DEPRECATED

Removed in Ansible:
| version: 2.12
Why: | Doesn’t support latest Pluribus Networks netvisor
Alternative: | Latest modules will be pushed in Ansible future versions.

## Synopsis

- Execute vlag-create/vlag-delete/vlag-modify command.
- A virtual link aggregation group (VLAG) allows links that are physically connected to two different Pluribus Networks devices to appear as a single trunk to a third device. The third device can be a switch, server, or any Ethernet device. A VLAG can provide Layer 2 multipathing, which allows you to create redundancy by increasing bandwidth, enabling multiple parallel paths between nodes and loadbalancing traffic where alternative paths exist.

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
pn_clipassword - |  | Provide login password if user is not root.
pn_cliswitch - | Default: "local" | Target switch(es) to run this command on.
pn_cliusername - |  | Provide login username if user is not root.
pn_failover_action - | Choices: move ignore | Specify the failover action as move or ignore.
pn_lacp_fallback - | Choices: bundle individual | Specify the LACP fallback mode as bundles or individual.

pn_lacp_timeout - | Choices: slow fast | Specify the LACP timeout as slow(30 seconds) or fast(4 seconds).
pn_mode - | Choices: active-active active-standby | Specify the mode for the VLAG. Active-standby indicates one side is active and the other side is in standby mode. Active-active indicates that both sides of the vlag are up by default.
pn_name - / required |  | The `pn_name` takes a valid name for vlag configuration.
pn_peer_port - |  | Specify the peer VLAG port. Required for vlag-create.
pn_peer_switch - |  | Specify the fabric-name of the peer switch.
