This is a collection of tools ive developed to run with mainly Cisco switches

network-toolkit's Issues

refactor: ultilize argparse for int search

strip oobm interface

strip off oobm interfaces like gi0/0

Webpage to monitor your c9800 wireless ptp connections (mesh) (maybe new repo)

New Tool: List of Interfaces who are on shutdown

feat: list switches in result which didnt match the search criteria

ssh timeout entry for raw output results

If netmiko cant fetch results (timeout, etc.) dont delete the switch from results, instead add reason why it failed.

Use a config file

Static vars like:

• Path to .csv file
• SSH tcp port
• number of worker threads (maybe get that number dynamicly?)
• timeout of SSH connections
• username/password for ssh login

Multi thread netmiko funktions

Zero Touch Provisioning (maybe new repo)

Refactor load_global_config.py and config.yml

Needs some tweaks to the code and a better structure to config.yml

Enhance load_config_file

Main work is done.

To-Do:

• Write username/password in config.yml, if they got entered by user input
• Give the possibility to change the path to config.yml, if it couldn´t be found

feat: add flag to strip uplink interfaces off

Make SSH reachability checker optional

Handle KeyboardInterrupt

feat: new tool: mac address batch lookup

i need a tool to look up a batch auf mac addresses.
i want to utilize a cache to save time and foreign api ressources.

Make SSH login checker optional

Refactor ssh/password checker

Done.
But it is so ugly and hacky, that i need to clean it up frist, before i commit it.

Improve logging by adding a progress indicator

like:
start with this
done [1/2]
start with that
done [2/2]
...

feat: Change config.yml + switchlist.csv to templates

Change it to templates, so it wont get overridden, when pulling new version

Flow:
-Template contains default values
-If no copy of template exist, copy the template for the user to change the config / switch values
-If user copy of template exists: do nothing

Create requirements.txt

Check if SSH username/password is working

bug: SSH connection timeout stops at 21s

should stop after 2s.

feat: int_search - write switches with 0 search hits in extra list for results

SSH checker enhancements

• Build in choice to re-check the non working switches
• choice to increase ssh timeout
• continue with the working switches

Build in alive-bar for netmiko funktions

Design: Decide how to display output data

feat: new input source prime infrastructure

exception when regex check for 'sh run' output fails

change the regex to fail in ssh_connection.py line 147 and see the exception.
need to think for a good dict design.

if the regex matches, the code wont fail.

feat: mac address lookup - get IEEE MAC list
