Ansible module to transfer files using SCP to Cisco IOS

[Kirk Byers]

I recently wrote an Ansible module to transfer files using SSH+SCP to Cisco IOS devices.

I think it has some interesting automation use cases for legacy Cisco devices:

* Loading config snippets (merge)

* Loading completely new configs (configure replace)

* IOS upgrades

* Initial device configuration

The module can be found here:

I also have a write up about using the module here:

The module is experimental at this point. I am definitely interested in getting more feedback from people on it.
