You didn't provide the playbook, but from that error it's pretty obvious that you're providing a parameter ('provider') that the module does not support. As the error also says, there are only two parameters. The docs are pretty clear: [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/ios\_vlans\_module.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/ios_vlans_module.html) [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/ios\_l2\_interfaces\_module.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/ios_l2_interfaces_module.html) ---

It works now. It does not allow neither provider nor connection: local must be network\_cli. What replaces provider?
