    validate_certs: no
    method: GET
    return_content: yes
    register: get_descriptions

Debug Output

  • debug: msg=“{{ get_descriptions.content }}”

ok: [localhost] =>
msg: |-
sw01 sys SNMPv2-MIB.sysDescr = Cisco IOS C2960S (C2960S-UNIVERSALK9-M) Version 12.2(55)SE7 RELEASE (fc1)

I’m able to configure the when to run only when - Cisco IOS C2960S found in the output

  • debug: msg=“{{ get_descriptions.content }}”
    when: “‘Cisco IOS C2960S’ in get_descriptions.content”
