Cisco Network Automation with Python

Tired of configuring Cisco devices manually while modern infrastructure moves at cloud speed?Today's enterprise networks demand far more than repetitive CLI work. Organizations now expect engineers to automate deployments, validate configurations programmatically, integrate APIs, build scalable infrastructure pipelines, and manage networks like software systems.If you still rely heavily on manual workflows, inconsistent configurations, and reactive troubleshooting, you risk falling behind in the era of programmable infrastructure.Cisco Network Automation with Python gives you the practical, real-world skills needed to transition from traditional network administration into modern infrastructure automation engineering.Whether you are exploring NetDevOps for beginners, learning Python for network engineers, or searching for a complete Cisco automation engineer guide, this book delivers a structured roadmap for building production-ready automation workflows across modern enterprise environments.Instead of teaching isolated scripts with no operational context, this book walks you through:Enterprise network automationNetwork programmability with PythonRESTCONF and NETCONF automationNetwork automation using AnsibleCisco DevNet automationand scalable Infrastructure as Code networking workflows used in real operational environments.Inside this book, you will learn how to:Build scalable Cisco automation workflows with PythonAutomate multi-device deployments using Netmiko and APIsWork with REST APIs, RESTCONF, NETCONF, JSON, and structured infrastructure dataDesign reusable Infrastructure as Code and automation frameworksDeploy network automation using Ansible professionallyBuild CI/CD pipelines for Cisco infrastructure automationAutomate compliance auditing and configuration validationCreate secure, observable, enterprise-grade automation systemsIntegrate telemetry, monitoring, and operational intelligenceDevelop real-world Cisco automation projects from scratchTransition into modern NetDevOps and automation engineering rolesWhether you are a network engineer, systems administrator, DevOps professional, or infrastructure architect, this book provides a practical and production-focused approach to mastering modern Cisco automation workflows.This is more than a scripting tutorial.It is a complete roadmap for becoming a modern infrastructure automation engineer capable of designing scalable, observable, and enterprise-ready automation systems.Stop managing infrastructure one device at a time.Start building scalable automation systems that modern enterprises actually need.
