@lwy119, thanks for raising the issue. Can you please let me know the DCNM collection version which you are using? Can you try with the latest 2.1.0 collection release? This issue has been fixed in that version.

@praveenramoorthy thanks for the reply. Turns out I had a typo in host file. After fixing that the authentication works fine.

However I have another issue. After I created some policies through Ansible, I can see the CLI are pushed to the switches. When I do recalculate and deploy in NDFC, it shows the switches are not in sync and there are pending configs. If I look into what configs are pending, it basically removes my pushed config and adds them back once….any workaround on this? Is this an expected behavior? It seems NDFC does not recognize configs pushed via Ansible?

@lwy119 the configuration pushed from policy need match the cli format, especially when you are using freeform template, do you mind share you your playbook here?
