API to enable the Network default device[Ansible]

lanagna — Mon, 11 Dec 2023 05:58:58 GMT

Can you confirm is this still the same or we have API to enable the Network default device - which can be enable and set password for TACACS.

Note: Pls share if any API available for the same.

Duplicate question answered in the referenced post. There is no API available, therefore there is no Ansible module for this configuration.

Thanks for the input. Btw I need a couple of queries and it would be great if you address the same.

a. Integrate the Vault with ISE for AD password fetching and integration - Looking for API

b. Trying to find the API for enabling PSN work centers -> Overview -> Deployment -> Device Administration Deployment

=> Activate ISE Nodes for Device Administration
None
All Policy Service Nodes ------ > Finding API to enable the same via ansible
Specific Nodes

In future, please limit posts to a single topic. Using the same post for multiple questions makes it difficult for others to seek help on the same topic.

a. I'm not sure what specifically you mean by 'API' for Ansible Vault. You can use Ansible Vault to encrypt passwords or other strings that are referenced in your playbook. See Using Vault in playbooks

b. Documentation for all of the available Ansible Modules for Cisco ISE can be found here - ISEAnsibleActions
The specific module you would use is the node_deployment_module and you would use the same structure as the API example in the referenced community post.

Please create a new post for any follow-up questions.
