Cisco IOS Python Requests

In this example, there are two routers connected by a single link and OSPF is enabled to advertise the static routes into OSPF.

Python Program

Here is the R0 configuration:

import base64
import requests
import urllib3

urllib3.disable_warnings()
auth = 'juniper:juniper'.encode()
print(auth)
base_auth = base64.b64encode(auth)
print(base_auth)
base_auth = base64.b64decode(base_auth)
print(base_auth)

new_auth = base64.b64encode(bytes(u'juniper:juniper','utf-8'))
print(new_auth)

DNA_URL = "https://sandboxdnac.cisco.com"
HEADERS = {"content-type":"application/json"}
USER = "devnetuser"
PASS = "Cisco123!"
AUTH = (USER, PASS)
LOGIN_URL = DNA_URL + "/api/system/v1/auth/token"
result = requests.post(url=LOGIN_URL, auth=AUTH, headers=HEADERS, verify=False)
print(result.json())
TOKEN = result.json()['Token']
print(TOKEN)
HEADERS['X-Auth-Token'] = TOKEN
print(HEADERS)

INVENTORY_URL = DNA_URL +"/dna/intent/api/v1/network-device"
response = requests.get(url=INVENTORY_URL, headers=HEADERS, verify=False)
print(response.ok)
print(response.text)
