Server returned response without token info during connection authentication

Hi all


My first post in checkmates forum so be gentle 😉


Trying to connect to Gaia rest api with ansible


Inventory :

[test:vars]
checkpoint ansible_host=XXXXXXX
ansible_user='XXXXXXXXX'
ansible_password='XXXXXXXXXXX'
ansible_network_os=checkpoint
ansible_httpapi_use_ssl=True
ansible_httpapi_validate_certs=False

[test]
XXXXXXX


Playbook:

---
- hosts: test
connection: httpapi
gather_facts: false
tasks:
- name: collect-host facts
cp_mgmt_host_facts:
details_level: standard
limit: 50
offset: 0


I get this response :

Ive verified that I can connect to api via curl and get token back? Our checkpoint administrator can see login and logoff on management server?

 

Kind Regards

What precise version of Check Point Management (with JHF level) are you connecting with?
Believe for Ansible, it should be R80.20+ with a recent JHF installed.

Did someone find a fix for this ? I am facing the same issue on R80.40:

This is Check Point Security Management Server R80.40 - Build 150
This is Check Point's software version R80.40 - Build 685

Can someone please help ?

Did you enable the API and allow access for the ip/subnet you are connecting from?

What does the output from a simple curl test say?

curl https://<mgmtip>/web_api/login -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"user":"xxx", "password":"xxx" }' -kv

Hi,

Not sure if you are trying to use the gaia collection that leverages the gaia API or the mgmt collection that leverages the Management API.
The playbook in in the start of this thread is using a module from the mgmt collection that leverages the Management API.

Anyway
I recommend to take a look at the Read Me under: https://galaxy.ansible.com/check_point/mgmt
I recommend to download the latest collection from galaxy.
Here is a updated working example using the mgmt collection from galaxy:

/etc/ansible/hosts

[test:vars]
ansible_user=api_user # Admin username on management server
ansible_password=vpn123 # Admin password on management server
ansible_network_os=check_point.mgmt.checkpoint
ansible_httpapi_use_ssl=True
ansible_httpapi_validate_certs=False

[test]
192.168.233.71 # IP of the Check Point management server

 

The playbook using the collection from galaxy

---
- hosts: test
  connection: httpapi
  gather_facts: false
  tasks:
    - name: collect-host facts
      check_point.mgmt.cp_mgmt_host_facts:
        details_level: standard
        limit: 50
        offset: 0

 

Kind Regards
Jim
