PANDEVICE in Python to query details of a specific Static Address Group

BobbyWilloughby — Wed, 07 Oct 2020 22:13:59 GMT

I am relatively new to using PANOS/PANDEVICE libraries in Python with Panorama. I am trying to figure out how to get a list of AddressObjects associated with a specific Static AddressGroup in the "Shared" DeviceGroup.

object_name = "H-i-061d40e4013db52ae"

pano_device_group = panorama.DeviceGroup('shared')

pano.add(pano_device_group)

object_list = pano.add(objects.AddressGroup(name=object_name)).refreshall(pano_device_group)

This just returns a list of all AddressGroups defined in the shared DeviceGroup....

Someone rescue me please....

Greetings,

Since doing the refreshall returns a list, you are going to have to iterate through the list to get your result. See example below.

import panos
from panos import firewall
from panos import panorama
from panos import network
from panos import device
from panos import updater
from panos import errors
from panos import objects


pano = panorama.Panorama(IP, ADMIN, PASSWORD)
grp = objects.AddressGroup(name='some group name')
pano.add(grp)
ListOfAllGroups = grp.refreshall(pano)
for i in ListOfAllGroups:
if i.name == grp.name:
print(i.static_value)
