Python Script

L2 Linker

From Pan-OS 8.0 - 8.1.6, there is a bug when using FQDN's in rule sets.  Until we're ready to upgrade, I need to run a script to force a FQDN refresh, cli is "request system fqdn refresh force yes".  I'm really new to Python, but have created my API Keys.  Anyone have some guidance to pass along on how I can build this script?

@Brad.Herbert,

You could do this easiest with a simple requests script through the XML API. Something like the below would work

import requests
key = 'ReplaceWithAPIKey'
firewall = 'ReplaceWithFirewall'
#########
request_refresh = requests.get('https://' + str(firewall) + '/api/?type=op&cmd=<request><system><fqdn><refresh></refresh></fqdn></system></request>&key=' + str(key), verify=False)
