NETCONF, RESTCONF, YANG Demos (API vs CLI): David Bombal interviews Hank Preston (Part 2)

David Bombal and Hank Preston discuss Network Automation, Network Programmability, NetDevOps and the future. What should you learn? CCNA or Python? And many other topics! Part 1 here: • FREE Cisco Course: Dav...
In this video Hank demos a practical DevNet lab using NETCONF, RESTCONF, and YANG models. We also discuss the advantages of using an API versus CLI scraping (show run / show int).

This content is gold. Very clear and with clear examples. Thanks David and Hank!

[@johnnycheng7]

Thanks so much for sharing how to start learning DeOps

[@naingaung7827]

Mr.David. Super Cool. Now I got new knowledge from you and Hank Preston. Please make the next session.

[@rahulcsaple]

Before watching this video, there was an open question on " Why we need Python code executed for NETCONF & RESTCONF API" while we have 'Network Automation with Python on CLI" .. Ilustrated well for answering this question..Thank you very much ..

[@vlogsBooks]

Nice explanation about YANG DATA Model. Thanks to David and Hank who showcased the SDN technology in a structured manner.

[@mohideenpitchai5437]

Hi David and Hank , thank you so much for the deepdive. Its a wonderful explanation in the topics on YANG/NETconf/RESTconf. Much appreciated

[@davidbombal]

Glad you enjoyed the video Mohideen!

[@adamlicht6614]

I am very happy to have stumbled across this playlist. Talk about a meeting of the minds! I think I just figured out what I'm going to be doing all weekend! Cheers guys, and thank you!

[@llellouche]

Netconf and restconf are the future that's few years ago saying, they are here now I would love to learn more of this so thank you David and your guest

[@williamshenk7940]

Nice tutorial, excellent coverage of this new material. Thanks

[@markpartridge9046]

All I can say wow thanks this has been very informative. Thanks David and Hank awesome interview.

[@sidheekmohammed9361]

Excellent video :) Thanks Hank and David for sharing all this

[@darshanmenon3016]

Thank you David and Hank

[@painmonopoly6668]

Just a note. The intro to coding fundamentals is now under Introduction to DevNet in the Programming Fundamentals section.

[@superumesh777]

This is Gold

[@ayyapanr]

David.. you are my alter ego! Thanks for those questions.. effective use of opportunity... cant appreciate enough. Could you guys talk a bit about ConfD in devnet? It appeals to be a great resource but all their video tutorials are bit abstract to me and I would love to play with that on devnet..

[@RaulEduardoFloresNajera]

Excellent info

[@mpower3144]

Hello , I have a quick question, where does the yang suite actually get installed, not clear on that, is it a sperate server in a network?

[@tango12341234]

This still seems rather complicated. Is there a popular GUI version that uses Ansible, Python Restconf and Yang to automate and if so why not just use that? It just feels like we are trying to write out math problems here instead of using a calculator?

[@dipakkumarrai1442]

Thanks David. Thanks Hank. Would you kindly advise how to go about converting a yang model such as ietf-interfaces.yang into a json. I can easily do that into an XML through the command $ pyang -f yin ietf-interfaces.yang > ietf.xml. But then how to convert the .yang file into a .json file please?

[@mohideenpitchai5437]

did any one experienced an issue while getting the get_config output with RPC error (RPCError: error: application protocol error).

[@zufar_dhiyaulhaq]

hi david and hank, i have learn about netconf and yang, but the problem im facing is in the YANG version, each devices is not supported the same version of YANG model (ietf, ofconfig, etc), how we dealing with this problem when creating the program?

[@zizouchamp]

Happy to see two of my favourite Network automation tutors together . A deep dive on yang model will be helpful . I would like to know how the model can be used via python code

[@zufar_dhiyaulhaq]

yes Anup, i hope will be another chapter
