bigip_node module won't connect?

So I am fairly new to ansible here, but I’ve been fumbling my way around OK thus far. I can’t seem to get ansible connected to our BigIP F5 at all though. Are there special permissions I need my network team to grant me to the f5? I do have SSH access on an ansible specific user at this point, and I can login to the GUI manually just fine and perform any tasks I need.

So I guess my question is this. Does this module attempt to cnnect to the WebUI or is it trying to SSH? If it’s SSH, obviously port 443 will never work. I have tried port 22 as well, and same issue.

Here is what I have as far as an ansible task (Trying to down a node):

Hi

Item shuld be used on name or fqdn. Server is for the bigip.

I recommend to use the new provider as well. Aka move to object containing connection details.
