Transform manual network operations into scalable, production-grade automation systems using Python, DevOps workflows, and modern Cisco infrastructure practices. This practical guide teaches you how to automate real enterprise networks with the same tools and methodologies used by modern infrastructure engineers.
Cisco Network Automation & DevOps with Python is a hands-on, real-world guide designed for network engineers, DevOps professionals, IT administrators, and aspiring automation engineers who want to modernize network operations using Python and infrastructure automation principles. Instead of focusing on theory alone, this book walks directly into practical implementation, showing you how to automate Cisco environments, build scalable workflows, integrate APIs, validate configurations safely, and deploy production-ready automation systems.
Throughout the book, you will learn how to work with Python libraries such as Netmiko, NAPALM, Paramiko, and Requests while integrating modern DevOps concepts including Infrastructure as Code, Git workflows, CI/CD pipelines, configuration validation, automated testing, rollback strategies, monitoring systems, and deployment automation. Every chapter is structured around practical implementation with concise explanations, professional coding practices, and enterprise-focused design patterns.
By the end of the book, you will not only understand network automation concepts-you will have the ability to design, build, test, secure, and deploy complete automation platforms capable of managing real-world enterprise infrastructure environments confidently and efficiently.
Key Features- Learn Python specifically for Cisco network automation and infrastructure management.
- Build real-world automation workflows using APIs, CI/CD pipelines, GitHub Actions, and DevOps methodologies.
- Automate VLANs, routing, interface configurations, validation, monitoring, backup, rollback, and deployment tasks.
- Understand production-grade architecture design, safety mechanisms, scalability principles, and troubleshooting techniques.
- Includes a complete enterprise network automation capstone project for hands-on practical experience.
Clifford E. Allen is a technology author focused on network automation, DevOps engineering, and modern infrastructure systems. He specializes in simplifying complex technical concepts into practical, real-world solutions for engineers, developers, and IT professionals.
