HI
I was trying to automate VLAN change requests through NCM/UDT. Need help to achieve below steps for VLAN change automation-----
1. Users will be creating a ticket for VLAN changes in a Web portal. The portal will have the user ticket along with User's Existing IP Address and expected new VLAN ID.
2. The portal will trigger an event to pass these information to NCM/UDT through Web API's
3. First,- UDT will take the IP Address input , and will find out dirrect connected Switch and Port Number.
4. Then UDT will pass these two info to NCM
5. NCM will take these two input (as point No 3) and will take another input from point No 1, which is users expected new VLAN ID.
6. NCM will now create a script for VLAN change based on above point no 5's three info.
7. NCM will log in to the switch,--> goto the Configuration mode--> go to the Interface configuration Mode(as per input from UDT; Switch details and will push the script.)
8. NCM will run "shut" and "no shut" in interface configuration mode with a waiting period of 10 -20 seconds between two commands.
9. NCM will trigger a job for full inventory collection after 2 minutes.
10.NCM will return some value to User Web Portal so that status can be changes to either completed or error.
If anybody can put some light on this for how to make these workflows work will be great help, specially how these integration and information exchange will happen between Web Portal , NCM & UDT.
