policy_info_switch.py¶

Description¶

Retrieve all policies for one or more switches.

Example configuration file¶

config/policy_info_switch.yaml

---
config:
  - switch_name: LE1
    fabric_name: SITE1
  - switch_name: LE2
    fabric_name: SITE2

Example Usage¶

export ND_DOMAIN=local
export ND_IP4=192.168.7.7
export ND_PASSWORD=MySecretPassword
export ND_USERNAME=admin
./policy_info_switch.py --config config/policy_info_switch.yaml
# output not shown
