> MODULE cisco.sccfm.update_network_group (sccfm-ansible/plugins/modules/update_network_group.py)

  Update a network group in your SCC Firewall Manager tenant.
  The group can be identified by `uid' or `name' (exactly one
  required).
  Only fields that differ from the current state are sent, making the
  module idempotent.
  Returns `changed=False' when the group already matches the desired
  state.
  Literal updates (network_literals, url_literals) are not supported
  for updates.

OPTIONS (= indicates it is required):

- api_token  API token for SCCFM.
        set_via:
          env:
          - name: SCCFM_API_TOKEN

        type: str

- description  New description for the network group.
