Learn and apply advanced Python concepts like Multiprocessing and Threading in Network Automation.
See real-world examples of automation scripts with Python for Cisco IOS, Arista EOS or Linux.
Understand how to use Telnet and SSH with Python for network automation.
Learn how to use and improve Paramiko and Netmiko for the automation of common administration tasks with Python.
Automate and troubleshoot network configurations with Ansible.
You will be able to use Ansible, manage Ansible inventory files, tasks, modules for Linux and networking devices, playbooks, vaults and YAML Files.
Use NAPALM Python library in a multi-vendor environment.
Learn how to configure networking devices with Python using a Serial Console Connection.
Improve the existing Python modules and create your own modules for network automation.
You will ultimately gain real-life skills for a good Network or DevOps Engineer.
You will learn general Python Programming in depth.

Requirements
No prior Python knowledge is required. There is a general Python programming section included.
Basic knowledge of networking concepts (TCP/IP Stack, Cisco CCNA Level).
A Linux, Mac or Windows Machine with an Internet connection and at least 4 GB of RAM.
No paid software required. Only free software will be used: Python 3, PyCharm, GNS3, VirtualBox, Linux, etc.
Cisco IOS Images should be acquired by the student (from Cisco's official website - contract required) to run into GNS3 or practice all the concepts on real Cisco devices.
Basic Knowledge of GNS3 and how to run Cisco Images, although I'll provide you with the necessary setup information.
