Wireless Access

Having some problems with the XML API.

Running ArubaOS 6.3.1.13

The external server is able to successfully reach the controller, but when requesting auth/command.xml it's returned a HTTP 302 code with no redirect location.

Is there something I'm missing?

Thanks

Did this ever work?

What command is being sent and what is the format?

No, brand new setup.

It returns a HTTP 302 even when just hitting it with a browser or any random HTTP GET which is making me think it's something related to the API itself.

POST https://<server>/auth/command.xml HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: text/xml; encoding='utf-8'
Host: <server>
Content-Length: 200
Expect: 100-continue
Connection: Keep-Alive

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<aruba command="user_add">
<ipaddr>ip</ipaddr>
<role>authenticated<role>
<key>mysharedkey</key>
<authentication>cleartext</authentication>
<version>1.0</version>
</aruba>

Bump

Any ideas?

I've tried restarting controllers etc just incase there was something dumb going on at the controller. Everything I look at seems to point at something on the controller that's not quite working or configured as intended.

As far as I can read, there is no further controller configuration required other than to add an XML API server. We do have the PEFNG licences as required which are being consumed by the APs.

I can't really think of anything else.

Did you try to do a test with curl?

#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/curl -vikd "xml=<aruba command="user_add">
                    <ipaddr>10.168.84.14</ipaddr>
                    <macaddr>00:0c:41:cf:b8:e3</macaddr>
                    <name>User_Name</name>
                    <role>Role_Name</role>
                    <password>test123</password>
                    <version>1.0</version>
                    <authentication>cleartext</authentication>
                    <key>key123</key></aruba>" -H "Content-Type: text/xml" https://10.168.83.10/auth/command.xml
 

Thanks Colin. Really great pointer :)

I merely wasn't including the xml= in the POST request. Something so simple yet broke me badly.
