+description:
+  - Sends arbitrary commands to an aireos node and returns the results

+    argument that will cause the module to wait for a specific condition
+    before returning or timing out if the condition is not met.
+  - This module does not support running commands in configuration mode.
+    Please use M(aireos_config) to configure WLC devices.
