How to do it…

The following steps demonstrate how to connect to a device and retrieve some facts about it using the getters that NAPALM provides:

Import the napalm module:import napalm

From the napalm module, retrieve the approprtiate driver for your device's vendor. Please refer to the How it works… section of the Connecting to devices from different vendors using NAPALM recipe for a list of possible drivers:driver = napalm.get_network_driver("<insert driver name>")

Specify the connection details of your device. Note that you can pass a non-standard port in the optional arguments. If your device connects on the standard port, you can omit this:conn_details = {

"hostname": "<insert hostname>",

"username": "<insert username>",

"password": "<insert password>",

"optional_args": {

"port": <insert port as integer>

}

}
