Hello all,

I am trying to set only desired PIDs to visible in ANSA, so as to perform penetration check command on those visible PIDs.

Can anyone guide me in doing this using python scripting. Basically I am asking for the command in ANSA which is to be used.


Thanks

See the attached example script. You'll have to change the filename to just have the *.py extension.

Here's a brief explanation of the idea:

1. First, collect all PIDs using the ansa.base.CollectEntities() function. For more information, refer to the documentation in the scripting library
2. Filter the PIDs to just get the desired. This is usually done via the PID name or the id associated with it.
3. Show only the desired PIDs using the ansa.base.Or() function. For more information, refer to the documentation in the scripting library
4. Perform the desired checks!
