Ansible raw module & Cisco WLC

[David Vávra]

Hi, have anyone been succesful with at least logging in to Cisco WLC device with Ansible? I'm not able to make it work, most probably because of extra (nonstandard) prompt for User: 

(Cisco Controller)

User: xxxxxxx

Password:**********

(Cisco Controller) >

Thanks for any advice on this.

Have you tried using RSA key pairs instead of username/password?

[David Vávra]

I believe that authentication based on RSA key-pair cannot be used with Cisco WLC firmware. Or can be?

This looks like a interactive console, you can't use raw module for
that, you'll have to use the expect module.

Is it possible to use it even when there is no Python installed on the target device?

Yes, just use deligate_to, and deligate the task to a machine that has
Python.

I think you are correct.

Here's a slightly related thread on this topic:
