Have you tried setting remote_user? see https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/plugins/connection/network_cli.html for details Also does the Cisco IOS device actually allow password authentication with SSH? You can check with something like: enable conf term ip ssh server authenticate user password
and show ip ssh should show password authentication as listed >From what I can see you didn't use a straight inventory file like I suggested trying but just added the vars to another file? Checkout the hosts example file here: https://github.com/ansible/workshops/tree/master/exercises/ansible_network/1-explore and setup something like this Then just try ansible R-TEST-SNIF -m ping and see if that works first On Tuesday, 14 January 2020 14:38:34 UTC, Yehuda Pinhas wrote: > > *Hi!!* > *Here is my code on my /etc/ansible/roles/new_vlan/vars/new_vlan_vars.yml > file:* > ansible_ssh_common_args: > -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=~/.ssh/known_hosts > ansible_user: ansible > ansible_pass: ansible > > *I want to disable the SSH authenticity of host check, and I dont want to > use public and private keys for ssh..
