Netforce

Netforce is a network infrastructure automation service for managing and configuring network devices.


To start as a developer:

$ git clone https://github.com/eBay/pynetforce.git
$ cd netforce
$ virtualenv ~/Downloads/netforce-dev
$ source ~/Downloads/netforce-dev/bin/activate
$ tox

Features supported for a network switch:

  • Port Enable
  • Port Disable
  • Port-vlan flip
    • Validation support for VLAN change from trunk to access and vice versa for a physical port.
  • Create subnet on vlan interface
    • Validation support for BGP configured bubbles using flat/non-flat networks.
  • Port labelling

Vendor OS supported:

  • Juniper: junos
  • Cisco: nxos and ios
  • Arista: eos

TODO:

  • NAPALM integration: Increase the device driver coverage by adding more device driver functions.

  • OpenConfig Integration: Integrate with OpenConfig to program openconfig enabled devices using yang models as Netforce gives a unified api layer.

Note:

  • Not all Vendor device OS versions have been tested.

  • e.g. new versions of eos supports json parsing and old versions don't. Hence, device drivers are written to support both old and new versions.
