  tasks:
    - name: Get all interfaces link status information
      community.network.ce_link_status:
        interface: all
        provider: "{{ cli }}"


#variant 2
- hosts: huawei
  connection: ansible.netcommon.network_cli
  gather_facts: no
  vars:
    ansible_network_os: community.network.ce
  tasks:
    - name: Get all interfaces link status information
      community.network.ce_link_status:
        interface: all

EXPECTED RESULTS

successfull connection

ACTUAL RESULTS

#variant 1

#variant 2

at the same time module community.network.ce_command works with connection: ansible.netcommon.network_cli
