pyaoscx - upload cli config file from local PC to switch

  • 1.  pyaoscx - upload cli config file from local PC to switch

    Posted Apr 04, 2022 06:37 AM
    Hello community,
    I am using pyaoscx module with a 6200F switch version v10.09. Is there a way to upload a local config file with commands like:
    interface 1/1/1
    no shutdown
    description test descr
    no routing
    vlan trunk native 10
    vlan trunk allowed 10,393
​

    with pyaoscx ?
    From what I Read i can upload a local config JSON file but I can't seem to find any way to upload a CLI-style config file.
    Or is there a way to transform a CLI-style config file into JSON with pyaoscx ?

    Thank you for your help,

    Hi Lewis,

    It is not the idea of pyaoscx (or other API modules)

    You need to write your "workflow" to modify the interface, you can look https://pyaoscx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#creating-workflows

    ------------------------------
    PowerArubaSW : Powershell Module to use Aruba Switch API for Vlan, VlanPorts, LACP, LLDP...

    PowerArubaCP: Powershell Module to use ClearPass API (create NAD, Guest...)

    PowerArubaCL: Powershell Module to use Aruba Central

    PowerArubaCX: Powershell Module to use ArubaCX API (get interface/vlan/ports info)..

    The way I do it, is to generate a full config-file, and use this to upload the config file to the switch:

    https://github.com/aruba/aoscx-ansible-collection/blob/master/plugins/modules/aoscx_upload_config.py

    It supports both normal cli config and json config.
    If you upload directly to running config, the configuration will be merged with the existing configuration. To work around this, I upload to startup config, and copy it to the running config.
