Overview

This node interacts with the Aruba Central Next Gen API to create a firewall profile within the security domain. It allows users to specify the profile name and provide a JSON configuration body for the firewall profile. This is useful for automating firewall profile management in network security setups, enabling consistent and repeatable firewall configurations.

Use Case Examples

1. Creating a new firewall profile with specific rules and settings by providing the profile name and JSON configuration body.
2. Automating firewall profile updates as part of a network security policy deployment pipeline.

Properties

Output

JSON

• profileId - Identifier of the created firewall profile
• profileName - Name of the created firewall profile
• status - Status of the create operation, e.g., success or failure
• message - Additional message or details about the operation result

Dependencies

• Aruba Central Next Gen API with OAuth2 authentication

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the API credentials are correctly configured and have permissions to create firewall profiles.
• Verify the JSON configuration body is valid and conforms to the expected schema for firewall profiles.
• If debug mode is enabled, check the detailed logs for specific error messages to diagnose issues.
• Common errors include authentication failures, invalid JSON body, or insufficient permissions.
