Hi Krishna,

To the best of my knowledge, there isn't anyone building IOSXE modules today outside of what is available already (ios_config, ios_command, ios_template). We are adding Restconf and Netconf support (in addition to the current CLI support) to the IOS shared network module for Ansible 2.2. If you are interested in building IOSXE modules that implement those transports, that would be great. The updates should start to move upstream in the next week or so.

Hi Peter,

That is awesome. I’ll look the IOS_* modules and write similar ones for IOSXE_

We are adding Restconf and Netconf support (in addition
to the current CLI support) to the IOS shared network module for Ansible
2.2.
Can you pls point me work done for Netconf ?

Is this the file location in the latest github ? ( git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git --recursive)?
lib/ansible/modules/extras/network/netconf/netconf_config.py

Krishna
