SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

There are few issues with nxos_static_route.

• There is no 'default' keyword support for optional parameters
• For removing a static route, we MUST specify all the optional parameters as well because of certain checks in the code and this is not clean because they are optional and not really needed.
• If the same static route exists on default and non-default vrfs, there is a potential for set (and idempotent) failures.

Note: I will open a PR shortly to address the above issues
