Python for Network Engineers. Network Automation, Programming, and DevOps

Networks form the foundation for deploying, supporting, and maintaining applications. Python is the ideal language for network engineers, offering tools that were previously available only to system engineers and application developers. By reading this book, you will transform from an... ordinary network engineer into a network developer prepared to meet next-generation networks. The third edition has been completely revised and updated for use with Python 3. In addition to new chapters dedicated to analyzing network data using the ELK stack Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana, and Beats and Azure Cloud Networking, it includes information on using Ansible and the pyATS and Nornir frameworks. Furthermore, examples have been updated for better understanding of concepts and ensuring compatibility.
