Hey,

You might want to use the ios_command module for Cisco IOS specific commands.
ansible ios -m cisco.ios.ios_command -a "commands='show version'" -vvvv

I'm not sure.. I did try it, but it result with an error message indicating that the module should be used in a playbook not on ad-hoc command.. have you tried that yourself !?
