Key benefits

  • Explore the power of Python libraries to tackle difficult network problems efficiently and effectively, including pyATS, Nornir, and Ansible 2.8
  • Use Python and Ansible for DevOps, network device automation, DevOps, and software-defined networking
  • Become an expert in implementing advanced network-related tasks with Python 3

Description

Networks in your infrastructure set the foundation for how your application can be deployed, maintained, and serviced. Python is the ideal language for network engineers to explore tools that were previously available to systems engineers and application developers. In Mastering Python Networking, Third edition, you’ll embark on a Python-based journey to transition from traditional network engineers to network developers ready for the next-generation of networks. This new edition is completely revised and updated to work with Python 3. In addition to new chapters on network data analysis with ELK stack (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana, and Beats) and Azure Cloud Networking, it includes updates on using newer libraries such as pyATS and Nornir, as well as Ansible 2.8. Each chapter is updated with the latest libraries with working examples to ensure compatibility and understanding of the concepts. Starting with a basic overview of Python, the book teaches you how it can interact with both legacy and API-enabled network devices. You will learn to leverage high-level Python packages and frameworks to perform network automation tasks, monitoring, management, and enhanced network security followed by Azure and AWS Cloud networking. Finally, you will use Jenkins for continuous integration as well as testing tools to verify your network.

Who is this book for?

Mastering Python Networking, Third edition is for network engineers, developers, and SREs who want to use Python for network automation, programmability, and data analysis. Basic familiarity with Python programming and networking-related concepts such as Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) will be useful.

Excellent! The book is definitively for Network Engineer who is looking for a deep scripting knowledge in Python. The author provides teaching materials from real example and experience.I have learnt many programming languages and read many books how to program. This is my favorite one because it is the easiest to read. The coding examples are easy to understand . I am highly recommending this book.

Bought the eBook off Packt early this morning and have already skimmed the book. Reviewed the new chapters and bookmarked the chapters I need to dig deeper into and go through in my lab. As a longtime network engineer, content like this is more important than ever to learn. I have the Second Edition of this book and jumped on his Third Edition! Author always is clear and covers current content, it gives you a start in many concepts and shows you the way. Love that the ElasticStack was added, also a key addition with Genie and PyATS the last chapter of the book.
