Update on the patch scope:

If a change is made to remove this, I think it should be safely placed behind an explicit configuration parameter for the vyos_config

I believe the intent of the existing filters is to prevent accidental password changes. For an automation solution, I don't see significant value in changing this behavior, except to remove the plaintext variant as well. The intention here is to prevent accidental overwrite of passwords during the configuration step. The existing vyos_user should be used for handling password changes.

Closing — test task for MCP custom fields validation.

Netcommon v8.4.0 seems to be free of this issue - kindly check for yourself and advise

https://github.com/vyos/vyos.vyos/pull/449

It is likely extension to vyos.vyos.vyos_l3_interface module

Created https://internal.jira.vyos.com/browse/VD-2822

Yes, @GideonKuijt ; this is an intentional change to ansible-core from what I understand. They're trying to make the templating operations much more explicit, so some of the places where we were able to automatically have templating have been broken. Thanks for posting the solution here. I expect we'll see this in a few other places that have src: as well.

Dev work is under https://github.com/vyos/vyos.vyos/pull/438

That's awesome - thanks

New Playbook

@nicolas Fort @Srividya Anantapatnaikuni here is the solution

A workaround could be the following:
Old:

vyos_config:
  src: "templates/template.j2"

New:

vyos_config:
    lines: "{{ lookup('template', 'templates/template.j2').splitlines() }}"

This does not look like a bug but rather as the module mis-use:
