Description

Real-life hands-on Python and Ansible automation: SSH, Paramiko, Netmiko, Napalm, Telnet, Ansible, Cisco, Linux etc

What You'll Learn?

You will MASTER all the Python 3 key concepts starting from scratch. No prior Python or programming knowledge is required.
Learn how to automate the configuration of networking devices with Python 3 in a multi-vendor environment.
Learn network programmability with Python, GNS3 and Ansible.
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.

Who is this for?

Network Engineers

Network Architects

SysAdmins

DevOps Engineers

Cisco Certified Professionals: CCNA, CCNP, CCIE

Anyone interested in Network Automation and Network Programmability with Python

What You Need to Know?

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.

I've been a Network and Software Engineer for over 15 years, the typical profile of a DevOps Engineer.I've co-founded Crystal Mind Academy, a Cisco Academy and professional training center in Romania, that focuses on teaching cutting-edge technologies to students.I have contributed to education in the areas of programming, information security, and operating systems. During the last 15 years, more than 200,000 students have participated in in-person or online training programs at Crystal Mind Academy.I have developed documentation, labs, and case studies for many training programs such as Cisco CCNA, CCNA Security, CCNP, Linux Administration, Information Security, Python Programming, Network Automation with Python or Blockchain Programming (Ethereum/Solidity) which have been successfully attended by thousands over the years.When I'm not working, I crossfit, read a good book, enjoy a good time or travel with my wife and children.
