Hi Team,
I installed the HP SDN VAN controller software. I can able to successfuly generate the token using the following curl command as mentioned in HP documentation.
"curl -k -X POST "https://127.0.0.1:8443/sdn/v2.0/auth" -d '{"login":{"user":"sdn","password":"skyline"}}' -H "Content-Type:application/json"
As a part of application development using HP SDN VAN Controller, I used libcurl library utility to generate the token. I am facing issues as I could not able to generate the token. I followed all the option setting as mentioned in above curl command. I am not sure whether any other options needs to given to generate the token. The following is the error generated.
Refer the code as shown above for reference. Any help is appreciated. Thanks for understanding
