Cisco ISE v3 Lessons - Automating Switch Configurations w Python Netmiko 

Thanks so much for sharing Chris. I just found this today. I work at a large refinery and do mostly switches and Wireless APs. I wopuld say we have around 100 switches mostly 3560s but I have about16 new 9200 switches I will be installing. We use Solarwinds for monitoring and some configuration. I'm really trying to find a way to make my life easier with configurations, troubleshooting. I really think brushing up on automation tools that can help would be cool I will be checking out more of your videos.

Very useful. Thanks. But what about a script that connects to a switch, seeks what ports have only MAB enabled and then populates these interfaces with dot1x config as well. This would be very useful!

Hi thank you so much for the tutorial ! But I have a question, instead of SSH how do you connect using serial port? Like configuring a switch from scratch which doesn't have a username and password, and doesn't have an management IP address. TQ!

tried to run this but I keep getting these errors Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/rashhad.miah/Desktop/security/vuln_check.py", line 27, in output = net_connect.send_command(commands_list) File "C:\Users ashhad.miah\Desktop\Auto\venv\lib\site-packages etmiko\utilities.py", line 430, in wrapper_decorator return func(self, *args, **kwargs) File "C:\Users ashhad.miah\Desktop\Auto\venv\lib\site-packages etmiko\base_connection.py", line 1479, in send_command command_string = self.normalize_cmd(command_string) File "C:\Users ashhad.miah\Desktop\Auto\venv\lib\site-packages etmiko\base_connection.py", line 1638, in normalize_cmd command = command.rstrip() AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'rstrip' is there something im doing wrong? (im a newbie to network automation)
