IpsecTunnel api refresh

JohnCrubaugh — Fri, 02 Aug 2019 15:33:33 GMT

im trying to get a list of ipsec tunnels from each template stack i have. but anytime i attempt to use the class pandevice.network.IpsecTunnel i receive an error that pandevice doesnt have an attribute network.... according to the documentation here:

https://pandevice.readthedocs.io/en/latest/module-network.html

it does have a class pandevice.network.IpsecTunnel do i need to define something before i can reference this class ?

#to define which panorama you will connect to
for device in devices:
pano = panorama.Panorama(device, api_key=auth_key)

# when you need to fetch objects in the Device Group
for temp in templates:
tempgrp = pandevice.panorama.Template(temp)
pano.add(tempgrp)
ipsecgrp = pandevice.network.IpsecTunnel.refreshall(panogrp)
pano.add(ipsecgrp)
objects_list = []
for object_element in ipsec_object_list:
obj = {
'name': object_element.name,
'tunnel_interface': object_element.tunnel_interface,
'type': object_element.type,
}
objects_list.append(obj)
for object in objects_list:
print (object)
print()

Looks like the problem is that you haven't imported pandevice.network at all. Once you do that, you should be ok.

Two other comments:

First is that you shouldn't do pano.add(ipsecgrp) after the refresh. The objects are already in the pandevice object tree (as children of the template), so you don't need to add them in again.

If you want to print out details of an object, you can use the .about() function that all pandevice objects have. If you just want to see a few params and not everything, then making a separate dict and printing that is fine.
