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.

Peter

Hi Peter,

That is awesome. I’ll look the IOS\_\* modules and write similar ones for IOSXE\_

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
