Ansible to Harden vSphere 6.5

[amarbl]

Been working on a project that requires me to automate the hardening of my ESXi 6.5 hypervisor using Ansible by following the VMware vSphere Hardening Guidelines 6.5. So I've been wondering whether there's anyone out there that have tried to use Ansible to automate hardening of hypervisor and have some tutorial or playbooks that I can refer to. I can't seem to find any sort of resources out on the net that touches on this after researching for a while.

Any help would be Appreciated.

Hello

Make sure to configure the switch ports as individual 802.1Q trunk ports instead of a port channel, allowing for the transmission of multiple VLANs. Check that the default VLAN is not set to VLAN10 on the ports.

Thank you.
