  • Leverage AWS APIs and the Python library Boto3 to administer your public cloud network efficiently
  • Get started with infrastructure automation by enhancing your network programming knowledge
Book Description

Network automation offers a powerful new way of changing your infrastructure network. Gone are the days of manually logging on to different devices to type the same configuration commands over and over again. With this book, youll find out how you can automate your network infrastructure using Python.

Youll get started on your network automation journey with a hands-on introduction to the network programming basics to complement your infrastructure knowledge. Youll learn how to tackle different aspects of network automation using Python programming and a variety of open source libraries. In the book, youll learn everything from templating, testing, and deploying your configuration on a device-by-device basis to using high-level REST APIs to manage your cloud-based infrastructure. Finally, youll see how to automate network security with Ciscos Firepower APIs.

By the end of this Python network programming book, youll have not only gained a holistic overview of the different methods to automate the configuration and maintenance of network devices, but also learned how to automate simple to complex networking tasks and overcome common network programming challenges.

What you will learn
  • Programmatically connect to network devices using SSH (secure shell) to execute commands
  • Create complex configuration templates using Python
  • Manage multi-vendor or multi-device environments using network controller APIs or unified interfaces
  • Use model-driven programmability to retrieve and change device configurations
  • Discover how to automate post modification network infrastructure tests
  • Automate your network security using Python and Firepower APIs

About the reviewers

Wang Yin Parry, CCIE No. 40245, is a senior network engineer at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia. Prior to working at KAUST, Parry left his footprints in the Royal Bank of Scotland, Apple, NCS, Equinix, and AT&T in Singapore. Parry has 12 years of experience in the computer networking industry and has certifications from Cisco, Microsoft, HPE, and Aruba. Parry is a NetDevOps evangelist in the Sinophone world; he was one of the first authors to publish Python tutorial books for network engineers in the Chinese-speaking world. His books The Road to Python for Network Engineers and Manage IT Infrastructure Using Python were respectively published in Mainland China and Taiwan in November 2020 and May 2021.

I started my journey in NetDevOps in my second year at KAUST in 2017. I could never have imagined it would be so successful in the years to come. I've been blessed with taking part in lots of great projects over the last few years at KAUST. I'd like to thank my team, in particular Khalid Mustafa, Kevin Sale, and Gary Corbett, for encouraging me and giving me the chance to participate in projects that give me the chance to apply what I have learned in the real world.

Rickard Krkk is a NetDevOps consultant at SDNit, where he's part of a group of experienced technical specialists with a great interest in, and focus on, emerging network technologies.

He's a self-taught programmer with a primary focus on Python. His daily work includes working with orchestration tools such as Ansible to manage network devices.

He has also served as a technical reviewer for the book Mastering Python Networking, Third Edition, by Eric Chou.
