Показать описание

Hello and welcome to module 6 of the NetBox 'Zero-to-Hero' course. In this module, Susan will be adding the required Wireless LANs using some simple Python scripts to interact with the NetBox REST API.

By the end of this module you will be able to:
- Describe how NetBox models Wireless LANs
- Use simple python scripts to read data from and write data to the NetBox database via the REST API

Get Hands On
If you'd like to follow along with the examples used in this course, it's super easy to do, and you have a few options:

The software versions used in the video for this module are:
- `NetBox v3.3.2`
- `Python v3.8.9`

Setting Up Your Python Environment

Challenge - Improve the Python Scripts
If you fancy a challenge why not develop these simple scripts further and improve them? Maybe you could create a Python function to add the data? Or you could try moving the json data into a separate file and get your script to loop over the json data when it runs.

It would be great to see how you develop your scripts and if you want to share this or just ask questions then pop on over to the NetBox Zero to Hero channel on the DevNet slack community and join in the discussion!

Very good video and explanation again which gave some nice examples of using python and the use of APIs. I think however that the title "Setting up the WiFi" is misleading and should indicate the use of Python and APIs.
