My journey with Network & Cloud Automation
We have seen how to achieve parallel task execution in python using multi-threading as in the below-linked post. Let’s see how we can leverage Python Scrapli AsyncIO to achieve similar results. Part1 of scrapli can be found here What is AsyncIO? asyncio is a library to write concurrent code using the async/await syntax. asyncio is used as a foundation…
We have already seen in theory how all of the above differ and where each of them is applicable and useful. In this post, I will try to demonstrate the same concept using practical examples. I could have spun up tens of devices in GNS3/Eve-ng but I figured just using manual delays to simulate the…
I have been using a multi-threaded version of the synchronous codes that we usually see to interact with devices and for over a year now and I have a network of nearly 28k devices (routers / switches / WLCs / FWs ) that I need to manage. With that multithreaded version, I was able to…
Scrapli stands for scrape cli very cleverly joined together in one word. Althought he source documentation of this network devices interaction library is really wonderful and can be found here, this is my journal on my path to learning various libraries for device interactions and understand how they differ from each other and which one…
