Use the search string test
<https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_tests.html#testing-strings>.
when: ansible_net_hostname is search('(csr|asw)')
You could store the regexp in a variable:
vars:
regexp: 'csr|asw'
when: ansible_net_hostname is search(regexp)
Or you can construct the regexp from a list in the task.
- ios_config:
...
when: ansible_net_hostname is search(regexp)
vars:
regexp: "{{ '|'.join(northregion) }}"
