No, darn it. I forgot those modules expect python on the target. So,
expect, command, shell, etc won't work. I think what you want to do is
something like (I don't have any way to test this at the moment):
---
- name: enable-mode
ios_command:
commands:
- command: enable
prompt: 'Password: '
answer: {{ enable_password }}
- name: config-mode
ios_command:
commands: config terminal
- name: delete-user
ios_command:
commands: username {{ user_to_delete }} delete
or something like that?
