# This script will gather deployment info from your ISE instance. Some of this may be interesting to you,
# but mostly it's just informational. I may modify this playbook in the future to gather
# some useful info that can be used by subsequent playbooks (policy and rule IDs),
# or maybe gather all of the data that we configure for comparison
