Description

Python Intro The course starts with a discussion of the basic Python syntax with variables, data types, control flow, functions, modules and packages. Classes and Objects Next attention is paid to classes and objects in Python, including encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism and abstract classes. Python Libraries Widely used Python libraries such as those for regular expressions and the access of files including XML and JSON files are on the program of the course as well. Python Network Access The Graphical Network Simulator-3, GNS3, is then loaded with images of Cisco IOS, Juniper vSRX and Arista vEOS to access and configure these network systems with Python. Serial Connections Setting up serial connections, encoding and decoding, configuring Cisco devices and module enhancement are treated also. Network Automation Then the course will discuss the automation of networks with the SSH tools Paramiko and Netmiko and the open source Napalm Network API. Parallel Processing Finally, after a treatment of making backups, parallel processing in Python with multiple threads and processes is on the program. Netmiko is used here as well.
