panos_Security_rule Module not working when Using a Private IP

L1 Bithead

Hello Palo Alto Community

 

I noticed something really interesting when using the panos_security_rule module that I been troubleshooting for a long time without success

 

For some reason, When I try to configure rules in a Palo Alto VM-500 using the Public IP of the mgmt Interface, it works like a charm configures the rules as expected.

 

But If I use a private IP(Same palo alto interface just using the private IP), only the panos_security_rules does not work, it just hangs for a while and throws the following error.

 

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: http.client.RemoteDisconnected: Remote end closed connection without response

 

Any other playbooks module like for example create_objects, custom_urls, etc. works with the private IP, So I pretty much rule out a network/connectivity/authentication.

 

According to ChatGPT, it says that it might be a "TypeError" within panos/base.py

 

Just wondering if there is any ideas about what could be hapenning

 

These are my settings on the libraries

  • Collection: paloaltonetworks.panos 2.13.0
  • Python: 3.8.10
  • Ansible: core 2.13.7
  • pan-os-python 1.7.3
  • pandevice 0.14.0
  • pan-python 0.17.0

 

Thanks in Advance!
