Crate rustmiko

Rustmiko is a Rust crate designed to facilitate network device automation, inspired by the popular Python library Netmiko.

This crate aims to provide a type-safe and user-friendly interface for interacting with network devices, emphasizing ease of use and abstraction over low-level detail management.

Example of usage (Cisco Catalyst 2960 Switch):

fn main() -> anyhow::Result<()> {
	let mut cisco = match CiscoTelnet::connect("192.168.1.101:23", "admin", "admin") {
		Ok(cisco) => {
			println!("Connected successfully");
			cisco
		},
		Err(e) => {
			eprintln!("Failed to connect: {}", e);
			return Ok(());
		},
	};

	{
		let mut config = cisco.enter_config()?;
		for index in 1..=8 {
			let interface = config.get_interface("gi", &[0, index]);
			match config.interface_up(&interface) {
                Ok(_) => println!("Interface {} is now up", interface.name()),
                Err(_) => println!("Failed to set Interface {} up", interface.name())
            }
		}
	}

	if let Err(e) = cisco.save() {
		eprintln!("Failed to save configuration: {e}");
	}

	Ok(())
}

Modules

devices

Devices describe all currently possible, out of the box supported devices that can be used through our connection handlers. They abstract the usage and commands needed to manage a networking device of the specified type.
