Hi,

I have installed ansible version 2.7.8 on Redhat Linux 7.4 and have noticed following issue,

If I use “scp-extra-args” with option “-l” within playbook this option is not getting into effect. Which means if I mention the bandwidth to use with this option  
it is still taking the default bandwidth.

However it is also noticed that “scp-extra-args” with option “-l” works very well if I used ansible command line.

Can you kindly help me to get this fixed ? OR please advise me if I am doing something wrong ?

Your inputs/help will really help me to use this option in my playbook.

Regards,  
uday
