 Network resource modules provide a consistent experience across different network devices.  This means you will get an identical experience across multiple vendors.  For example the **VLANs** module will work identically for the following modules:
 
-* `arista.eos.vlans`
-* `cisco.ios.vlans`
-* `cisco.nxos.vlans`
-* `cisco.iosxr.vlans`
-* `junipernetworks.junos.vlans`

 Configuring [VLANs](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_LAN) on network devices is an extremely common task, and mis-configurations can cause headaches and outages.  VLAN configurations also tend to be identical across multiple network switches resulting in a perfect use case for automation.

 ## Takeaways
 
 * Resource modules have a simple data structure that can be transformed to the network device syntax.  In this case the VLAN dictionary is transformed into the Arista EOS network device syntax.
-* Resource modules are Idempotent, and can be configured to check device state.
-* Resource Modules are bi-directional, meaning that they can gather facts for that specific resource, as well as apply configuration.  Even if you are not using resource modules to configure network devices, there is a lot of value for checking resource states.  
-* The bi-directional behavior also allows brown-field networks (existing networks) to quickly turn their running-configuration into structured data.  This allows network engineers to get automation up running more quickly and get quick automation victories.
