Introduction

This information explains the usage of NAPALM for deploying the configuration into Dell EMC Networking OS10 switches.

NAPALM

Network automation and programmability abstraction layer with multivendor support (NAPALM) is a Python library that implements a set of functions to interact with different network device operating systems using a unified API.

NAPALM tries to provide a common interface and mechanisms to push configuration and retrieve state data from network devices. This method is very useful in combination with tools such as Ansible/SaltStack, which allow you to manage a set of devices independent of their network OS.

See NAPALM for complete information.

Dell EMC Networking NAPALM integration

Dell EMC Networking OS10 switches can be managed and automated using NAPALM unified API to manipulate configurations or to retrieve data.
