Configuration Encapsulation

python function:

• mult_cfg.mult_cfg

Three purposes of this layer:

• some additional configuration manipulation, for example:
  • removing duplicate lines
  • restoring the correct order of commands if necessary
• encapsulation or adaptation of the configuration files to protocols or tools are used at Layer 6 (telnet/ssh, neconf, ansible etc.)
• saving of configuration files (folder $PSEFABRIC/PSEF_CONF/EQ_CONF/)

Encapsulation Scripts

Additional scripts may be used for the configuration manipulation.

For example, this script from p001 project (cisco_cfg_correction.py) adds conf t line at the beginning of configuration for Cisco equipment:

import re

def cisco_cli_correction(cfg_txt):

    config_ = 'conf t' + '\n' + cfg_txt + '\n' + 'exit' + '\n'

    return (config_)
