How are you John sir! How would you go about setting up a jumphost using Nornir/Netmiko?

[eduardofernandezdiaz]

Do you know how to initilize Nornir without any YAML file, let's say with inline dictionaries?

Thanks for this kind of videos. They are super useful! I’m doing my first steps in this new world of Devops and I’ve a silly question (for you): can I use Ansible modules with Nornir?

@IPvZero, thanks so much for the update, I noticed that one of my scripts was broken, and updating the path to the plugins you demonstrated here corrected the issues. Really appreciate the help as always. Looking forward to building some 'read-only scripts' perhaps a number of scripts that will help network engineers to diagnose obvious problems ^^ again, thanks!

Very well done...clear and ready to use..thanks for this!!!

[jairoosorio]

Thanks for the video mate, I was looking at how to update my scripts.

Hi
You defined the function as

def baseconfig(ipvzero):
ipvzero.run(kwargs)
more stuff

Then you use it as
results = nr.run(task = baseconfig)

This bit is a tad confusing to me, I'm more accustomed to seeing the argument being passed to the function in a manner; result = function(args) where the function will also have a return statement.
With this line results = nr.run(task = baseconfig) What is the argument that is being passed to baseconfig as ipvzero?
Was hoping for something similar to baseconfig(nr) where nr is the argument being passed to the baseconfig function.
What is happening there?
