I can sign off on this, htmx is *really* good! We rely on that for the #WebUI in Infix OS 💪😎

CLI-over-API varies by Cisco platform:

• IOS-XE: CLI RPC (config commands, works over NETCONF/RESTCONF/gRPC)
• NX-OS: NX-API CLI (show + config, JSON output)
• IOS-XR: gNMI with ASCII encoding

Different transports, same idea.

Where is the Restconf support? xD

Most CCIE Automation study plans are backwards.

Start Ansible/Terraform → can't debug exam failures.

Right order:
1. Raw ncclient + NETCONF
2. RESTCONF
3. Ansible modules
4. Terraform

You can't debug what you don't understand.

I'm still busy coding in my RESTCONF lab. The attached shows the topology of the lab I'm working on. Also shown is some code in "vs code". You can use a Linux node within CML or vs code in Windows to fiddle with your RESTCONF code.

Don't get me wrong, I do not see any reason for you to implement Restconf. May point would just be that the code someone wrote for a Restconf interface will not work without adaptation on json-rpc. From the feature prospective json-rpc is definitely a superset.

Built a step-by-step CCIE Automation lab guide on Cisco CML.

3 routers, Python ncclient, NETCONF + RESTCONF. Working code from first connect to multi-device parallel push.

30 min setup → exam-ready practice.

12-month plan: CLI jockey → automation engineer ($113K avg):

Mo 1-3: Python + Netmiko + Git
Mo 4-6: Ansible + RESTCONF
Mo 7-9: NETCONF/YANG + CI/CD
Mo 10-12: Nornir + self-service tools

Networking first. Automation second.

In this article I use #Python to query the #Cisco IOS-XE #YANG model over #RESTCONF, and a #Bash alias to run all with one command.

The goal is automating the verification of the encryption algorithm on an active #IPSec tunnel.

Oh sorry, this is Clixon, a Swedish project to implement #yang datastores with #netconf and #restconf transports <3

This is the Banana Pi BPi-R2 Pro which I’ll port Infix OS to during the last days of my vacation. It’s a nice little board, despite its age, at a reasonable price compared to many other products.

Watch this space for more news very soon! 😊

Network automation tip: RESTCONF for structured device data.

Skip the CLI text parsing. Query Cisco devices via HTTP, get JSON back. Works consistently across IOS-XE/XR/NX-OS.

There is no need. The json-rpc we have is a superset of restconf
November 28, 2024 at 6:16 AM
Totally agree. Building that foundational understanding of Netconf/Restconf first really solidifies the 'why' behind automation, doesn't it.

I'm diving back into programming these days. Here is the JSON output of RESTCONF on a cisco CSR1000v. Network programmability would have to be the most technical thing in Network Engineering. It requires knowledge of Cisco IOS, Linux and Python.

including IANA-maintained YANG modules. Recommendations and procedures are defined, which are intended to increase interoperability and usability of Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) and RESTCONF protocol implementations that utilize YANG modules. This 2/3

CCIE Automation lab = 8hrs writing real code against live Cisco infra.

RESTCONF, NETCONF, Ansible, Terraform, Python — AND you need to debug the network when automation breaks.

Fewer than 500 holders worldwide. That's the bar.
