NAPALM (Network Automation and Programmability Abstraction Layer with Multivendor support) is a Python library that implements a set of functions to interact with different router vendor devices using a unified API.

NAPALM supports several methods to connect to the devices, to manipulate configurations or to retrieve data.

NAPALM driver for H3C Comware V7 network devices, over ssh.

S5100、S5500、S6800、S12500 Series Data Center Switches.

Some methods may work on Routers.

Looking forward to your testing and feedback :).

pip install napalm-h3c-comware

pip install napalm-h3c-comware -U

You can use this driver like this:

from napalm import get_network_driver

driver = get_network_driver("h3c_comware")
driver = driver("192.168.56.20", "netdevops", "NetDevops@01",)
driver.open()
ret = driver.is_alive()
print(ret)

If you want to custom some connection parameter, example: the port connected to the device, you should use optional_args, it is exactly the same as netmiko.BaseConnection.__init__:

from napalm import get_network_driver

driver = get_network_driver("h3c_comware")
conn_args = {
    "port": 2222
}
driver = driver("192.168.56.21", "netdevops", "NetDevops@01",optional_args=conn_args)
driver.open()
ret = driver.is_alive()
print(ret)

Sometimes you want to execute raw command via netmiko, you can use send_command, it is exactly the same as netmiko.send_command:

from napalm import get_network_driver

driver = get_network_driver("h3c_comware")
driver = driver("192.168.56.20", "netdevops", "NetDevops@01",)
driver.open()
# you can use any options that supported by netmiko.send_command
ret = driver.send_command("display clock", use_textfsm=True)
print(ret)
