Ansible Playbook NAT configuration R80.30

nicodemeb — Mon, 24 Feb 2020 09:41:31 GMT

Hello,

I am currently exploring the functionalities offered by the multiple Ansible plugins that I found here: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/community_maintained.html#check-point,

Therefore I am looking for NAT configuration through Ansible, and more precisely about Manual Lower Rules,

Is it possible to manipulate NAT configuration with Ansible?

Thanks!

As NAT rules can be modified through the API (nat-rule I believe) they should be modifiable through Ansible as well:
https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/latest/APIs/index.html#introduction~v1.6
Possible it already exists in our Ansible module and just the docs are missing.

I tried with what would seem to me to be the name of the plugin, respecting the same naming convention than the other plugins are using, so by using `cp_mgmt_nat_rule` plugin (working with `cp_mgmt_access_rule`, `cp_mgmt_network`, `cp_mgmt_host`, ...)

But by doing so, the result was the following:

Any Idea?

Thanks

Yeah, looks like we don't have support for it currently.
It will be added in later versions.

Looking forward to have this feature available on ansible. will this feature retrofit to R80.10?
