+short_description: Manage Arista EOS configuration sections
+description:
+  - Arista EOS configurations use a simple block indent file sytanx
+    for segementing configuration into sections.  This module provides
+    an implementation for working with eos configuration sections in
+    a deterministic way.  This module works with either CLI or eapi
+    transports.
+extends_documentation_fragment: eos
+options:
+  lines:
+    description:
+      - The ordered set of commands that should be configured in the
+        section.  The commands must be the exact same commands as found
+        in the device running-config.  Be sure to note the configuration
+        command syntanx as some commands are automatically modified by the
+        device config parser.
+    required: true
+  parents:
+    description:
+      - The ordered set of parents that uniquely identify the section
+        the commands should be checked against.  If the parents argument
+        is omitted, the commands are checked against the set of top
+        level or global commands.

+    description:
+      - The ordered set of commands to push on to the command stack if
+        a change needs to be made.  This allows the playbook designer
+        the opportunity to perform configuration commands prior to pushing
+        any changes without affecting how the set of commands are matched
+        against the system
+    required: false
+    default: null
+  after:
+    description:
+      - The ordered set of commands to append to the end of the command
+        stack if a changed needs to be made.  Just like with I(before) this
+        allows the playbook designer to append a set of commands to be
+        executed after the command set.
+    required: false
+    default: null
+  match:
+    description:
+      - Instructs the module on the way to perform the matching of
+        the set of commands against the current device config.  If
+        match is set to I(line), commands are matched line by line.  If
+        match is set to I(strict), command lines are matched with respect
+        to position.  Finally if match is set to I(exact), command lines
+        must be an equal match.
+    required: false
+    default: line
+    choices: ['line', 'strict', 'exact']
+  replace:
+    description:
+      - Instructs the module on the way to perform the configuration
+        on the device.  If the replace argument is set to I(line) then
+        the modified lines are pushed to the device in configuration
+        mode.  If the replace argument is set to I(block) then the entire
+        command block is pushed to the device in configuration mode if any
+        line is not correct
+    required: false
+    default: line
+    choices: ['line', 'block']
+  force:
+    description:
+      - The force argument instructs the module to not consider the
+        current devices running-config.  When set to true, this will
+        cause the module to push the contents of I(src) into the device
+        without first checking if already configured.
+    required: false
+    default: false
+    choices: BOOLEANS
+  config:
+    description:
+      - The module, by default, will connect to the remote device and
+        retrieve the current running-config to use as a base for comparing
+        against the contents of source.  There are times when it is not
+        desirable to have the task get the current running-config for
+        every task in a playbook.  The I(config) argument allows the
+        implementer to pass in the configuruation to use as the base
+        config for comparision.
