Create a new Zone Protection Profile using XPath?

L0 Member

I am trying to add a Zone Protection Profile from an XML document to a firewall using the XPath API.  I don't want to have to iterate through each element and add it to the profile.  Is there a way to add it from an XML file or block?

 

 

def add_dos_profile(self):

    ret = True

    with open("DOS.xml") as f:
        element = f.read()

        api_url = "https://" + self.host + "/api/?                 type=config&action=set&xpath=/config/devices/entry[@name='localhost.localdomain']/network/dns-proxy&element=" + element

       try:
            response = requests.get(api_url, params=self.location, verify=False, headers=self.api_headers)

            print("response")
            print(response)
            if response.status_code == 200:
                 if ret != False:
                      ret = True
                else:
                     ret = False

    except:
            print("ERROR add_dos_profile : connetcting to host. ")
            sys.exit(0)

    return ret

 

Here is the XML file:

You could use "load config partial" via the API?

 

First upload the XML snippet file (DOS.xml): https://{{host}}/api?key={{key}}&type=import&category=configuration, passing in the XML file as form-data

Second, load the XML as "partial config": https://{{host}}/api?key={{key}}&type=op&cmd=<load><config><partial><mode>append</mode><from-xpath>entry</from-xpath><to-xpath>/config/devices/entry[@name="localhost.localdomain"]/network/profiles/zone-protection-profile</to-xpath><from>DOS.xml</from></partial></config></load>

 

Hope that helps
