STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Execute the provided example playbook on a Catalyst device.

---
- name: Configure logging.
  gather_facts: false
  hosts: dev-campus-leaf-1

  tasks:

    - name: Configure logging.
      cisco.ios.ios_logging_global:
        config:
          trap: informational
        state: merged

EXPECTED RESULTS

I expect Ansible to not execute the command logging trap informational if it is already present on the device.

ACTUAL RESULTS

The command logging trap informational is executed on the device even if it is already present on the device and Ansible marks the task as changed. It should be noted that logging trap informational is not present in show run, but instead present in show run all.
