Issue #9657 has been updated by Brice Figureau.

I refrained implementing anything until we properly decided what was the best 
option.

Right now I believe (but I changed my mind a lot in the past) that either:

* use the current @puppet device@ application with a manifest as last argument
* create 'device-apply'

are our best options. This further separates the apply-to-host mechanism (like 
puppet device is different than puppet agent).

If we settle on one of the above, I should probably be able to propose a patch 
around next week.

Feature #9657: Improve puppet apply to support network device
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9657#change-73097

Author: Nan Liu
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assignee: J.D. Welch
Category: 
Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.3
Keywords: network, device
Branch: 


After writing additional network device, it seems reasonable to support device 
in puppet apply. Currently network resources are skipped:

    debug: /Stage[main]//F5_virtualserver[www-http]: Skipping device resources 
because running on a host
    debug: /Stage[main]//F5_virtualserver[www-https]: Skipping device resources 
because running on a host

Rather than having two separate modules with slight differences (see: 
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-f5/issues/42). It makes sense to 
ensure puppet resource and puppet apply also supports --deviceconfig option.
