Hello! I can offer some advice. In my findings, often there are no vendor canned, provided modules so you have to use the netcommon.cli module which works just as well.  
I have successfully deployed playbooks for cisco ios, cisco asa, dell, wlcs and nxos. Here is one playbook I use for my asa devices that use the netcommon.cli module.
