Hi,

I have a simple playbook:

- name: Delete all VLANs  
ios\_vlans:  
state: deleted

when I run it, it throws an error:

The full traceback is:

We need more information, like the output of ‘ansible --version’

The playbook

- hosts: …

tasks:

- name: Delete all VLANs  
ios\_vlan:  
vlan\_id: 100  
state: absent

works smooth.

Hi Michael,

I have tried the scenario of vlans delete all you’ve mentioned and for me it’s working as expected:  
**play** :

```auto
- name: Delete attributes of ALL VLANs
  ios_vlans:
    state: deleted

**python version tested** : 2.7.15, 3.6.8 and 3.7.2.

But if you still face the above issue, you can log the issue at Ansible with all the required information and I can take it forward.

_ **Regards,** _
