+author: "Peter Sprygada (@privateip)"
+short_description: Collect facts from remote devices running IOS
+description:
+  - Collects a base set of device facts from a remote device that
+    is running IOS.  The M(ios_facts) module prepends all of the
+    base network fact keys with U(ansible_net_<fact>).  The facts
+    module will always collect a base set of facts from the device
+    and can enable or disable collection of additional facts.
+extends_documentation_fragment: ios
+options:
+  gather_subset:
+    description:
+      - When supplied, this argument will restrict the facts collected
+        to a given subset.  Possible values for this argument inlcude
+        all, hardware, config, and interfaces.  Can specify a list of
+        values to include a larger subset.  Values can also be used
+        with an initial M(!) to specify that a specific subset should
+        not be collected.
