Scripting

64
G8264 Application Guide for ENOS 8.4
You can create and execute local Python script on switches to create small
programs that allow the switch to automatically provision itself, perform fault
monitoring, upgrade the image files, or auto‐generate configuration file. You can
use local scripts as a key part of your auto‐provisioning solutions. You can also
manage scripts on the Lenovo RackSwitch G8264.
You can implement version control systems, automatically generate alerts, create
custom logging tools, and automate management of network devices. Using
Python scripts, you can perform many functions that can be performed through
the CLI. In addition to configuration, you can notify users by sending email or
updating the SYSLOG.
See the Lenovo Enterprise Network Operating System Python Programming Guide for the
Lenovo RackSwitch G8264 for details on how to create and execute Python scripts.
