Basic Ansible script using version 2.13

[jay_7301]

Hi All,

This is my first time writing an ansible playbook. Please can anyone help me with the following error. I'm just trying to run a basic show ver to a cisco ios switch.

ansible-playbook new.yml

PLAY [cisco] ***********************************************************************************************************************************************

TASK [show version] ****************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [mgmtsw1]: FAILED! => {"msg": "Unable to automatically determine host network os. Please manually configure ansible_network_os value for this host"}

PLAY RECAP *************************************************************************************************************************************************
mgmtsw1 : ok=0 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=1 skipped=0 rescued=0 ignored=0

Here is my playbook. please forgive the lack of spacing here this is indented correctly in the actual playbook

- hosts: cisco

gather_facts: false

connection: local

tasks:

- name: show version

cisco.ios.ios_command:

Commands: show version

and inventory file:

[cisco:vars]
ansbile_network_os=ios
ansible_connection=network_cli

[cisco]
mgmtsw1 ansible_host=1.1.1.1

Thanks
