Topology files changed their name

Its a permanent change due to the recursive /topology/... hierarchy, reuse of object names within that hierarchy and long pathnames not supported in 2.7.
The Bgpipv4peer class instance should be retrieved via dot notation from parent objects using the .find() method.
Is the nested dot notation sufficient for your use cases?

Thank you for your reply.

I don't think it will work. We use these classes mostly for type hinting.

Hi Max,

If you have time would you provide a sample of how you use the class for type hinting?

Just to show an idea. Something like

from ixnetwork_restpy.testplatform.sessions.ixnetwork.ixnetwork import Ixnetwork
from ixnetwork_restpy.testplatform.sessions.ixnetwork.topology.topology import Topology
from ixnetwork_restpy.testplatform.sessions.ixnetwork.vport.vport import Vport

def add_topology(vport: Vport, ixnet: Ixnetwork ) -> Topology:
    topology: "Topology" = ixnet.ixnetwork.Topology.add(
        Name="name", Ports=vport
    )
    return topology
