Hey all,

I just filed #22098: "Feature Idea: Add module for Cisco AireOS devices 
(WLCs)".

We have a Cisco WLC where we need to dynamically create/destroy or 
enable/disable wireless networks. I even need to dynamically change the 
PSKs for a few of them.
Right now, I have a simple, crufty, python script that sends a few commands 
to the controller via Exscript.

Basically we're testing a bunch of IoT devices that are setup to connect to 
only one network. It would be very helpful to use Ansible to create the 
appropriate network as install/testing begins, and destroy it once that 
process is finished. Needless to say, that's not a common way to use the 
Cisco wireless stuff.

It looks like the new network_cli connection plugin will be perfect for 
this once 2.3 is out.[1]

Does anyone else have access to Cisco WLCs to be able to create a module to 
deal with them?  I wouldn't be able to spend enough time to write an entire 
module from scratch--I haven't ever written a module before, and I'm not 
sure I have time to learn it all now. But, I do need to make my crufty 
script more dynamic, fault-tolerant, and reusable, so, maybe I can use some 
of that effort to work with someone on such an ansible module. Any takers?

Cheers,
Jacob Floyd
