Writing Cisco PnP server in Python part 1 – Network programmability stream 42
The recording of the network programmability stream which occurred on 2018/03/03
On this stream I was writing Cisco Network PnP server in Python, which allows to do zero-touch provisioning for many Cisco enterprise platforms. Unfortunately, my laptop crashed in the middle of the stream and I didn't record the second part. We've managed to get to the point, where I can upload configs to the devices based on the serial number.
The code for this project is available here: https://github.com/dmfigol/cisco-pnp-...

Please note that this content is stream-first and it is slow-paced by design. I recommend increasing playback speed in the player settings.
