SUMMARY

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

There are few issues with nxos_vlan.

1. Unable to set ‘name’ parameter
2. ‘mapped_vni’ doc says, it supports ‘default’ but there is support.
3. ‘interfaces’ should support ‘default’ keyword, otherwise, there is no way to remove all the interfaces assigned.
4. documentation to be corrected so that vlan_state is NOT deprecated ans state only accepts absent and present
5. ‘interfaces’ are working only if we create the vlan at the same time. If there is an existing vlan and change parameters for that vlan and also provide interfaces for that vlan in the same task, only interfaces are being changed, it skips all other changes.

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