PyATS Connection Freeze

PeterAnsell
Level 1
Level 1

Hey,

 

Im trying to get a handle on pyats and explore what it might be able to do and i have run into an interesting problem straight out of the gate. This one is gonna sound pretty basic but thats where i am at with this sort of thing so here goes. 

 

when running any of the pyats sample scripts using a testbed modified to match my own devices i get the following errors. If i use the ipyats to connect to the devnet testbed from my local machone it works just fine. Im not really sure how to troubleshoot this further so i turn to the DevNet community for suggestions. For the record i can connect via ssh to the device from this device normally. 

 

From playing in the testbed it should move on to configuring an automation friendly terminal, setting term len, width etc but it just hangs here until it times out

 

Cheers

Hey,

 

Guessing you probably worked it out by now, the device name in your testbed file must be an exact match of the hostname of the device. Unfortunately is not very clear in peoples how-to-guides or the DevNet videos, but is in the unicon documentation.

 

Thanks
