We're looking to implement up/down alerting for interfaces that are members of a port-channel. We utilized tags on interface descriptions to automate monitoring and alerting on interfaces and this will be also using tags.
As such, I'm looking for a way to automated the updating of current network device configurations and wondered if anybody had done this or found a way to utilized a NCM job for this?
Not sure if this can be accomplished directly within NCM, I'm not nearly good enough at the scripting in NCM to know. I have however come up with a powershell script that can process a config and output a file that is the config interface lines and an updated description line that could be pasted directly into a device to update all of interfaces. I wonder if these is a way I could schedule running that script against the config directly on the APEs and produce config scripts that NCM could use to update the nodes? Is there a way for NCM to find and use an basic config script sitting as a file on an APE? I think if I could figure out that part, I could use powershell to produce the scripts for any interfaces that need updating.
