Create a VLAN and attach it to an ACCESS interface (in example below Eth1/17 is access):

- name: Merge networks
  cisco.dcnm.dcnm_network:
    fabric: nac-ndfc1
    state: replaced
    config:
      - net_name: ansible-net14
        vrf_name: NaC-VRF01
        net_id: 7006
        net_template: Default_Network_Universal
        net_extension_template: Default_Network_Extension_Universal
        vlan_id: 151
        gw_ip_subnet: '192.168.31.1/24'
        attach: []
        deploy: false
      - net_name: ansible-net13
        vrf_name: NaC-VRF01
        net_id: 7005
        net_template: Default_Network_Universal
        net_extension_template: Default_Network_Extension_Universal
        vlan_id: 150
        gw_ip_subnet: '192.168.30.1/24'
        attach:
          - ip_address: 10.1.1.11
            ports: [Ethernet1/17]
          - ip_address: 10.1.1.12
        deploy: false

This runs with no error.

Then life and shift Eth1/17 to other vlan:

- name: Merge networks
  cisco.dcnm.dcnm_network:
    fabric: nac-ndfc1
    state: replaced
    config:
      - net_name: ansible-net14
        vrf_name: NaC-VRF01
        net_id: 7006
        net_template: Default_Network_Universal
        net_extension_template: Default_Network_Extension_Universal
        vlan_id: 151
        gw_ip_subnet: '192.168.31.1/24'
        attach:
          - ip_address: 10.1.1.11
            ports: [Ethernet1/17]
          - ip_address: 10.1.1.12
        deploy: false
      - net_name: ansible-net13
        vrf_name: NaC-VRF01
        net_id: 7005
        net_template: Default_Network_Universal
        net_extension_template: Default_Network_Extension_Universal
        vlan_id: 150
        gw_ip_subnet: '192.168.30.1/24'
        attach: []
        deploy: false

This fails with the following error:

fatal: [xxx-pod1]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": {"DATA": {"ansible-net13-[xxxxxxxxx/LEAF1]": "Invalid Interfaces in LEAF1. Invalid interfaces are Ethernet1/17.", "ansible-net14-[xxxxxxxxx/LEAF2]-[xxxxxxxxx/LEAF1]": "SUCCESS Peer attach Response - SUCCESS"}, "MESSAGE": "OK", "METHOD": "POST", "REQUEST_PATH": "https://xx.xxx.:443/appcenter/cisco/ndfc/api/v1/lan-fabric/rest/top-down/fabrics/nac-ndfc1/networks/attachments", "RETURN_CODE": 200, "ROLLBACK_RESULT": "SUCCESS - Attempted rollback of the task has succeeded"}}
