    Hi there,

    I'm having problems to use the arubaoss_facts module on a Aruba J9778A 2530-48-PoEP (YA.16.10.0022) switch but it simply doesn't work.

    I'm new on Ansible and have been trying to use basic modules and plays to gain experience.

    This is the standalone play that I'm using is:

    ansible all -i <IP ADDRESS>, -c ansible.netcommon.httpapi -u <user> -k -m arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss_facts -e ansible_network_os=arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss

<IP ADDRESS> | FAILED! => {
"msg": "unable to load API plugin for platform type arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss"
}​

    I'm also getting errors when using another connection protocols:

    ansible all -i <IP ADDRESS>, -c ansible.netcommon.netconf -u <user> -k -m arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss_facts -e ansible_network_os=arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss

<IP ADDRESS> | FAILED! => {
"changed": false,
"msg": "Request failed: <urlopen error [Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution>",
"status": -1,
"url": "http://None:80/rest/v6.0/login-sessions"
}​

    ansible all -i <IP ADDRESS>, -c ansible.netcommon.network_cli -u <user> -k -m arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss_facts -e ansible_network_os=arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss

[WARNING]: ansible-pylibssh not installed, falling back to paramiko
<IP ADDRESS> | FAILED! => {
"changed": false,
"msg": "Request failed: <urlopen error [Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution>",
"status": -1,
"url": "http://None:80/rest/v6.0/login-sessions"
}​

    ansible all -i <IP ADDRESS>, -c local -u <user> -k -m arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss_facts -e ansible_network_os=arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss

<IP ADDRESS> | FAILED! => {
"ansible_facts": {
"discovered_interpreter_python": "/usr/bin/python3"
},
"changed": false,
"msg": "Request failed: <urlopen error timed out>",
"status": -1,
"url": "http://10.1.4.2:80/rest/v6.0/login-sessions"
}
​

    I have added NETWORK_GROUP_MODULES=arubaoss to the ansible.cfg file and also confirmed that the switch has web-management ssl and rest-interface enabled.

    What am I missing here?

    What your playbook file and inventory file ?

    Missing i think, use_ssl settings (from last test, you are using http and not HTTPS)

    ------------------------------
    PowerArubaSW : Powershell Module to use Aruba Switch API for Vlan, VlanPorts, LACP, LLDP...

    PowerArubaCP: Powershell Module to use ClearPass API (create NAD, Guest...)

    PowerArubaCL: Powershell Module to use Aruba Central

    PowerArubaCX: Powershell Module to use ArubaCX API (get interface/vlan/ports info)..

    ACEP / ACMX #107 / ACDX #1281
    ------------------------------

    Hi there,

    I'm not using any playbooks, just trying to issue the command. I'm also not using a inventory file since I'm testing the command against a single switch.

    • If you use RADIUS or TACACS for switch management add also this command to the switch : 
      switch(config)# aaa authentication rest login radius local
switch(config)# aaa authentication rest enable radius local


    Also can you run in verbose mode by adding `-v` to the end of the command?

    Hi there,

    I'm using a local account, no RADIUS or TACACS is being used for management.

    I ran the following command on a 2540 and it executed successfully, is your env using a proxy variable when it shouldn't? also just to verify you have an `ansible.cfg` file in the same directory you're executing the command from?

    (py3_ansible) ansible-control-machine$ansible all -i 10.100.107.168, -c local -u admin -k -m arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss_facts -e ansible_network_os=arubanetworks.aos_switch.arubaoss
