pyats-linux-network

You can automate Linux network interface checks across multiple hosts by using pyATS to examine interface status, IP addresses, MTU, and flags across a fleet. This provides consistent interface data and routing visibility for fleet-scale network validation.

Inspect routing tables on Linux hosts by running pyATS commands via the pyats_run_linux_command wrapper to gather read-only routing data. This allows you to view and compare default routes and routing tables across multiple devices in your testbed.

Yes, you can use pyATS to audit Linux host networks against NetBox or Nautobot. The Skill supports cross-host reconciliation, allowing you to compare collected interface and routing data against your Source of Truth for network consistency.

Yes, you need a pyATS testbed configured with os: linux for the target hosts. The Skill uses pyATS testbed conventions to execute commands and gather read-only network data across your fleet.

The best way to troubleshoot network connectivity across a Linux fleet is using pyATS to automate read-only data collection. It examines interfaces, routes, and connections consistently across multiple machines, reducing manual audit effort.

No, pyATS does not modify Linux network configurations during fleet validation. The Skill executes commands via the pyats_run_linux_command wrapper exclusively to gather read-only data for auditing and troubleshooting purposes.
