Cisco Catalyst WAN SDK is a package for creating simple and parallel automatic requests via official Manager API. It is intended to serve as a multiple session handler (provider, provider as a tenant, tenant). The library is not dependent on environment which is being run in, you just need a connection to any Manager.
pip install catalystwanOur session is an extension to requests.Session designed to make it easier to communicate via API calls with SDWAN Manager. We provide ready to use authentication, you have to simply provide the Manager url, username and password as as if you were doing it through a GUI.
from catalystwan.session import create_manager_session
url = "example.com"
username = "admin"
password = "password123"
with create_manager_session(url=url, username=username, password=password) as session:
session.get("/dataservice/device")
# When interacting with the SDWAN Manager API without using a context manager, it's important
# to manually execute the `close()` method to release the user session resource.
session = create_manager_session(url=url, username=username, password=password)
session.get("/dataservice/device")
session.close()Ensure that the close() method is called after you have finished using the session to maintain optimal resource management and avoid potential errors.
