iosxe_interface_port_channel resource does not set device_tracking / device_tracking_attached_policies #353

Description

Hi,

In the source file iosxe_interfaces.tf I found that device_tracking and device_tracking_attached_policies is supported, but undocumented both in schema and in official documentation. So I tried applying device tracking anyway and NaC never configured it. Claude helped me troubleshoot and wrote up the issue below.

Let me know if I can do anything!

Description

The NaC YAML supports device_tracking and device_tracking_attached_policies under interfaces.port_channels[], and local.interfaces_port_channels in iosxe_interfaces.tf correctly parses both values from the YAML (lines ~1731-1734). However, the resource "iosxe_interface_port_channel" "port_channel" block (starting at line 1888) never references each.value.device_tracking or each.value.device_tracking_attached_policies, so the parsed values are silently discarded and never applied to the device.

This works correctly for Ethernet interfaces — resource "iosxe_interface_ethernet" "ethernet" (line 318) explicitly wires both attributes at lines 395-396:

device_tracking                   = each.value.device_tracking
device_tracking_attached_policies = each.value.device_tracking_attached_policies

The equivalent lines are simply missing from the port-channel resource block.

Reproduction

iosxe:
  devices:
    - name: SW1
      host: 10.10.10.10
      configuration:
        interfaces:
          port_channels:
            - id: 1
              device_tracking: true
              device_tracking_attached_policies:
                - name: DISABLE-IP-TRACKING

Run terraform plan / apply — no device-tracking configuration is proposed or pushed to the Port-channel interface, even though the same block works fine on a physical Ethernet interface.

Expected behavior

device_tracking and device_tracking_attached_policies should be applied to iosxe_interface_port_channel the same way they are for iosxe_interface_ethernet.

Suggested fix

Add the following two lines to the iosxe_interface_port_channel.port_channel resource block in iosxe_interfaces.tf:

device_tracking                   = each.value.device_tracking
device_tracking_attached_policies = each.value.device_tracking_attached_policies

Environment
