Debug Output

Expected Behavior

I expected to add a cli command inside interface "freeform config field" even if there is already other cli commands inside this field.

Actual Behavior

If there is already cli commands inside interface "Freeform Config filed" , the merged state in the playbook replace all the "Freeform Config filed" by the cli in the playbook.

@nabsdcnm Thanks for raising the issue. We are discussing the behavior here and will respond soon.

mikewiebe commented 2 years ago

@nabsdcnm We have discussed this internally and this is a valid use case for the merged case. We will fix this.

@mikewiebe, thank for your reply. Can you please tell me when this fix will be available ? Another question, do you know if the merge in the network module has the same issue ?

mikewiebe commented 2 years ago

@nabsdcnm We currently do not support a free form set of commands for the dcnm_network module.

We don't have an estimated date for this fix yet but we are finishing up the fix for a different issue and then we will take this up next.
