Dell OS10 Platform Options

+---------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| | **Enable Mode** | | supported - use ``ansible_become: yes`` |

| | | | and ``ansible_become_pass:`` |
+---------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
| **Returned Data Format** | ``stdout[0].`` |
+---------------------------+-----------------------------------------------+
For legacy playbooks, OS10 still supports ``ansible_connection: local``. We recommend modernizing to use ``ansible_connection: network_cli`` as soon as possible.
Using CLI in Ansible
================================================================================
Example CLI ``group_vars/dellos10.yml``
---------------------------------------
.. code-block:: yaml
ansible_connection: network_cli
ansible_network_os: dellos10
ansible_user: myuser
ansible_ssh_pass: !vault...
ansible_become: yes
ansible_become_method: enable
ansible_become_pass: !vault...
ansible_ssh_common_args: '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q bastion01"'
- If you are using SSH keys (including an ssh-agent) you can remove the ``ansible_ssh_pass`` configuration.
- If you are accessing your host directly (not through a bastion/jump host) you can remove the ``ansible_ssh_common_args`` configuration.
- If you are accessing your host through a bastion/jump host, you cannot include your SSH password in the ``ProxyCommand`` directive. To prevent secrets from leaking out (for example in ``ps`` output), SSH does not support providing passwords via environment variables.
Example CLI Task
----------------
.. code-block:: yaml
- name: Backup current switch config (dellos10)
dellos10_config:
backup: yes
register: backup_dellos10_location
when: ansible_network_os == 'dellos10'
