Hello Everyone - I am aware we can use **with\_items** and **loop** methods to create a iterative loops in Ansible. Is there a logic to use kind of “for loops”

For example, i want to execute one Cisco command in the same Router continuously for 10 times … How to do this in Ansible? i am looking some thing like " range" command in python

Currently i use hard way of manually entering the command multiple times

- name: clear session  
ios\_commands:  
commands:

- clear counters

- clear counters

- clear counters

- clear counters

regards,RB
