NAME

Device::PaloAlto::Firewall - Interact with the Palo Alto firewall API

VERSION

version 0.04

SYNOPSIS

CONSTRUCTOR

RETURN VALUES

METHODS

verify_hostname

Enables/disables the verification of the peer certificate and hostname if 'https' is used for API calls.

$fw->verify_hostname(1); Enable TLS peer verification
$fw->verify_hostname(0); Disable TLS verification

optimise

Enables/disables the local caching of requests and responses to the firewall. This is disabled by default.

$fw->optimise(1);                           # Enable optimisation
my $system_info = $fw->system_info();       # API call to retrieve interface information
$system_info = $fw->system_info();          # Information retrieved from local cache

The first call to system_info() will make an API call to the firewall and cache the result. The second request will retrieve the response from the local cache without making an API call. Under the covers it uses Memoize to cache the API request call. This means that each function & arguments receive their own cache. For example:

$fw->optimise(1); 
my $default_vr bgp_peers = $fw->bgp_peers(vrouter => 'default');
my $other_vr_bgp_peers = $fw->bgp_peers(vrouter => 'other');

Both of these methods would make an API call to the firewall as the arguments differ.

tester

Retrieves a Device::PaloAlto::Firewall::Test object for this firewall.

use Test::More;
my $test = Device::PaloAlto::Firewall->new(uri => 'http://remote_pa.domain', username => 'test', password => 'test')->tester();

ok( $test->interfaces_up(interfaces => ['ethernet1/1']) );

For more information, see the Device::PaloAlto::Firewall::Test documentation.

system_info

Returns system information from the firewall.

my $system_info = $fw->system_info();
say "Current Time on Firewall: $system_info->{time}";

interfaces

Retrieves interface information.

high_availability

Retrieves information on the high availability status of the firewall.
