Automation Win: Cleanup Checkpoint Configuration

Gabriel Sulbaran decided to tackle a pretty challenging problem after watching my Ansible for Networking Engineers webinar: configuring older Checkpoint firewalls.

I had no idea what Ansible was when I started your webinar, and now I already did a really simple but helpful playbook to automate changing the timezone and adding and deleting admin users in a Checkpoint firewall using the command and raw modules. Had to use those modules because there are no official Checkpoint module for the version I'm working on (R77.30).

Did you automate something in your network? Let me know!

  1. I wrote an ansible playbook which logs into various networking devices, deletes the configuration and does a reboot. It works great but my boss wasn't so happy about that.
