Notes
-----

.. note::
   - Tested against NXOSv 7.3.(0)D1(1) on VIRL
   - Unsupported for Cisco MDS
   - Default, where supported, restores params default value.
   - In case of ``state=absent`` the address-family configuration will be absent. Therefore the options ``route_target_both_auto_evpn`` and ``route_targets`` are ignored.
   - For information on using CLI and NX-API see the :ref:`NXOS Platform Options guide <nxos_platform_options>`
   - For more information on using Ansible to manage network devices see the :ref:`Ansible Network Guide <network_guide>`
   - For more information on using Ansible to manage Cisco devices see the `Cisco integration page <https://www.ansible.com/integrations/networks/cisco>`_.
