About This Course And The Instructor


Requirements

  • No prior Python knowledge is required! This training teaches your everything, from scratch.

  • You should have a great desire to learn Python programming and do it in a hands-on fashion, without having to watch countless videos filled with slides and theory.

  • You should already be familiar with networking concepts like: Switching, TCP/IP, CLI, SSHv2, Telnet, OSI Layers.

  • You are going to use only free software throughout the course: Python 3.7, VirtualBox, Arista vEOS, Notepad++.

  • All you need is a decent PC or laptop (2GHz CPU, 8-16GB RAM) and an Internet connection to download the free tools.

  • Preferably, you should have a Windows OS to work on, to be fully synchronized with the course content.

Key Topics You Will Learn:

  • Master all the Python 3 key concepts starting from scratch. No prior Python knowledge is required!
  • Apply your new Python 3 skills to build various tools for network interaction and make your job easier.
  • Use Python 3 for connecting via SSH to any network device and reading/writing configuration from multiple devices simultaneously.
  • Use Python 3 for establishing SSH sessions to network devices, extract parameters like the CPU utilization and build real-time graphs for performance monitoring.
  • Use Python 3 for building an interactive subnet calculator with a user menu. The tool will return the network and broadcast addresses, the number of valid hosts per subnet, the wildcard mask and will generate random IP addresses from the subnet.
  • Use Python 3 for building a basic packet sniffer, capturing and analyzing network packets (ARP, ICMP, BOOTP) and saving packet data to a log file.
  • Use Python 3 for building a configuration change management tool that will extract the running config of a network device at specific time intervals, will compare it to the previous version, detect and highlight all the changes and send the network admin a nice and clean report via e-mail on a daily basis.
  • Use Python 3 and specialized modules and commands to connect to and query network devices via an intermediary, remote Linux server.
  • Get the full Python 3 code of 5 amazing network applications and customize each of them according to your networking needs.
  • Get many other useful, free resources to enhance your learning experience: quizzes, notebooks (code samples), cheat sheet (syntax summary and examples), e-book (syntax guide).
