Ever wondered how you can simplify network management while boosting your confidence in code deployment? Join us in this enriching episode of the Art of Network Engineering podcast as we sit down with John Capiobanco and Danny Wade, the brilliant minds behind the book "Cisco PyATS Network Test and Automation Solution: Data-Driven and Reusable Testing for Modern Networks." These experts share the creative journey that turned a simple blog concept into a comprehensive technical guide, revealing the extensive process behind writing and editing their book. You'll gain insight into PyATS, a Python-based framework that promises to revolutionize network automation and testing, making it accessible even for those with minimal Python experience.
Imagine having the power to automate your network tests and validate configurations with ease. That’s what PyATS brings to the table, and in this episode, we uncover its practical applications—from managing disaster recovery facilities to performing routine upgrades on ASA firewalls. Learn how PyATS integrates seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines, Ansible, and Robot Framework, and discover the future of network management with AI-driven functionalities like ChatGPT APIs. With step-by-step guidance on setting up a Python virtual environment and using PyATS commands, we make it simple for you to get started on your automation journey.
But that's not all. We dive into the personal stories of John and Danny, exploring their transition from blogging to co-authoring a technical book. They offer encouragement to network engineers everywhere to start their own writing endeavors, emphasizing the importance of storytelling in making technical content engaging. Hear about the supportive community that has rallied around their project and learn how you can contribute to the conversation. Whether you’re an aspiring writer or a seasoned network engineer, this episode is packed with inspiration and practical advice to elevate your career.
