Sorry, I’m an ansible newbie. When Ansible is running, what data is transmitted by SSH to the agent host? Is it a shell directive or python ?

Using the Raw module it can be shell but most of the time [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev\_guide/developing\_program\_flow\_modules.html#ansiballz-framework](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_program_flow_modules.html#ansiballz-framework)

Network device modules vary.
