salt.states.net_napalm_yang

NAPALM YANG state

Manage the configuration of network devices according to the YANG models (OpenConfig/IETF).

New in version 2017.7.0.

Dependencies

  • napalm-yang

  • pyangbing > 0.5.11

To be able to load configuration on network devices, it requires NAPALM library to be installed: pip install napalm. Please check Installation for complete details.

salt.states.net_napalm_yang.configured(name, data, **kwargs)

Configure the network device, given the input data strucuted according to the YANG models.

Note

The main difference between this function and managed is that the later generates and loads the configuration only when there are differences between the existing configuration on the device and the expected configuration. Depending on the platform and hardware capabilities, one could be more optimal than the other. Additionally, the output of the managed is different, in such a way that the pchange field in the output contains structured data, rather than text.

data

YANG structured data.

models

A list of models to be used when generating the config.

profiles: None

Use certain profiles to generate the config. If not specified, will use the platform default profile(s).

test: False

Dry run? If set as True, will apply the config, discard and return the changes. Default: False and will commit the changes on the device.

commit: True

Commit? Default: True.

debug: False

Debug mode. Will insert a new key under the output dictionary, as loaded_config containing the raw configuration loaded on the device.

replace: False

Should replace the config with the new generate one?

State SLS example:

{%- set expected_config =  pillar.get('openconfig_interfaces_cfg') -%}
interfaces_config:
  napalm_yang.configured:
    - data: {{ expected_config | json }}
    - models:
      - models.openconfig_interfaces
    - debug: true

Pillar example:

openconfig_interfaces_cfg:
  _kwargs:
    filter: true
  interfaces:
    interface:
      Et1:
        config:
          mtu: 9000
      Et2:
        config:
          description: "description example"
salt.states.net_napalm_yang.managed(name, data, **kwargs)

Manage the device configuration given the input data structured according to the YANG models.

data

YANG structured data.

compliance_report: False

Return the compliance report in the comment.
