This patch addresses a problem in nxos_facts where certain commands are
not supported or return no data, the module would raise an exception.
With this patch, the nxos_facts module will now print a warning for any
commands that return no data and not populate the facts.
fixes#22001
trying to import from the wrong shared lib, this patch changes
network_common to connection. Also fixes a bug found in the nxos
action plugin to detect transport
fixes#21829
This completes the refactor of the nxos modules to use the persistent
connection. It also updates all of the nxos modules to use the
new connection module and preserves use of nxapi as well.
* Fix imports on nxos_bgp* modules
* Fix imports on nxos_evpn* modules
* Cleanup issues for nxos_facts
* Shuffle imports for nxos_template
* Fix imports on nxos_ospf* modules
* Fix nxos_hsrp
As get_hsrp_groups_in_devices is not actually called anywhere, I presume this
change is reasonable.
* Fix imports on nxos_interface* modules
* Update nxos_static_route imports
* update nxos_vrf
* Update nxos_config imports
This fixes a condition where an exception is raised when collecting `interface`
facts and the transport is set to nxapi in the nxos_nxapi module.
