       servers. It is also useful when starting guests with the virt module
       and needing to pause until they are ready.

       state  either started, or stopped depending on whether the module
              should poll for the port being open or closed.  Choices:
              started,stopped. (default: started)

       timeout
              maximum number of seconds to wait for (default: 300)."
