Copy this output into your inventory file under [vyos:vars], which now
looks like this:
[vyos:vars]
ansible_connection=network_cli
ansible_network_os=vyos
ansible_user=my_vyos_user
ansible_ssh_pass= !vault |
$ANSIBLE_VAULT;1.2;AES256;my_user

that is INI style
I put that in a file by itself
and dropped that in the Inventory folder
I got this
[WARNING]: * Failed to parse /home/MinMe/Ansible/Inventory/test with ini
plugin: /home/cristi/Ansible/Inventory/test:1: Expected key=value host
variable assignment, got: this
[WARNING]: Unable to parse /home/MinMe/Ansible/Inventory/test as an
inventory source
Expected key=value, got: $ANSIBLE_VAULT;1.2;AES256;my_user
guys I must say that it is really frustrating to have to spend so much time
to encrypt a password and putting it in a configuration file
If Cisco password encryption in the IOS configuration file would be so
difficult Cisco would not exist today.
Is the documentation wrong ? this was supposed to be easy
