Hey there,
I'm trying to make a playbook which will send commands to Cisco WLC to send backup config to tftp server.
While i'm performing manual commands to the WLC the config backup are uploading to my tftp server without any case.
Here is my set of commands which i perform manually:
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload mode tftp
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload datatype config
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload filename backup_config.cfg
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload path /
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload serverip 99.99.99.99
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload start
(Cisco Controller) >y
Here is the output from the Cisco WLC:
(Cisco Controller) >transfer upload start
Mode............................................. TFTP
TFTP Server IP................................... 99.99.99.99
TFTP Path........................................ /
TFTP Filename.................................... backup_config.cfg
Data Type........................................ Config File
Encryption....................................... Disabled
**************************************************
*** WARNING: Config File Encryption Disabled ***
**************************************************
Are you sure you want to start? (y/N) y
TFTP Config transfer starting.
File transfer operation completed successfully.
As you see "File transfer operation completed successfully."
So i try to perform the same logig and the same set of commands using ansible playbook:
- name: Set TFTP commands to WLC
community.network.aireos_command:
commands:
- command: transfer upload mode tftp
- command: transfer upload datatype config
- command: transfer upload filename backup_config.cfg
- command: transfer upload path /
- command: transfer upload serverip 99.99.99.99
- name: Start transport
community.network.aireos_command:
commands:
- command: transfer download start
prompt: 'Are you sure you want to start?'
answer: 'y'
And here i see that WLC are meking something wrong.
Here is the output from the ansible-playbook:
ok: [WLC] => {
"changed": false,
"invocation": {
"module_args": {
"commands": [
{
"answer": "y",
"command": "transfer download start",

}
],
"host": null,
"interval": 1,
"match": "all",
"password": null,
"port": null,

"wait_for": null
}
},
"stdout": [

],
"stdout_lines": [
[
"Mode............................................. TFTP",
"Data Type........................................ Code",
"TFTP Server IP................................... 99.99.99.99",
"TFTP Packet Timeout.............................. 6",
"TFTP Max Retries................................. 10",
"TFTP Path........................................ /",
"TFTP Filename.................................... backup_config.cfg",
"",
"This may take some time.",
"Are you sure you want to start? (y/N) y",
"",
"TFTP Code File type not supported!"
]
]
}
Why WLC tries to send TFTP Code type, while i asked to send Data type Config File?
Anyone faced this issue?
