salt.modules.napalm_users.config(**kwargs)

Returns the configuration of the users on the device

CLI Example:

Output example:

{
    'mircea': {
        'level': 15,
        'password': '$1$0P70xKPa$4jt5/10cBTckk6I/w/',

salt.modules.napalm_users.delete_users(users, test=False, commit=True, **kwargs)

Removes users from the configuration of network devices.

Parameters
  • users -- Dictionary formatted as the output of the function config()

  • test -- Dry run? If set as True, will apply the config, discard and return the changes. Default: False

  • commit -- Commit? (default: True) Sometimes it is not needed to commit the config immediately after loading the changes. E.g.: a state loads a couple of parts (add / remove / update) and would not be optimal to commit after each operation. Also, from the CLI when the user needs to apply the similar changes before committing, can specify commit=False and will not discard the config.

Raises

MergeConfigException -- If there is an error on the configuration sent.

Return a dictionary having the following keys
  • result (bool): if the config was applied successfully. It is False only in case of failure. In case there are no changes to be applied and successfully performs all operations it is still True and so will be the already_configured flag (example below)

  • comment (str): a message for the user

  • already_configured (bool): flag to check if there were no changes applied

  • diff (str): returns the config changes applied

CLI Example:

salt '*' users.delete_users "{'mircea': {}}"
