+short_description: Collect facts from remote devices running Cisco IOS.
+description:
+  - Collects facts from network devices running the ios operating
+    system. This module places the facts gathered in the fact tree keyed by the
+    respective resource name.  The facts module will always collect a
+    base set of facts from the device and can enable or disable
+    collection of additional facts.
