Thanks, very informative.looking forward for more videos on Nornir...thanks once again.

[@NetworkEvolution]

Sure. Im in process of preparing.

[@nbctcp3450]

which one do u think easier between nornir and ansible and what is the reason

[@NetworkEvolution]

If you have some experience in python and you want to handle advanced configuration logics you can use nornir. It is 100% python based frame work and you should be able to customize the tasks better. If you want to automate common tasks with less effort you can use Ansible. Ansible is having really good module/collections support for common tasks

The inventory file you can set as below for enable secret. rtr2: hostname: 192.168.67.47 platform: 'ios' username: newadmin password: newadmin connection_options: netmiko: extras: secret: cisco123 To see more details about inventory please have a look in to this video as well kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoTIhaemp5ZsbdU

Is there nornir gui version like ansible tower or awx?

[@NetworkEvolution]

As of now there is no GUI for nornir.
