Hi Rene,
i have a very basic question,i know from github we can get scripts,and they need to run on a linux based server to change the config on network kit.My point of confusion is, how does the linux box know to reach the network kit,is it all down to routing /static route in a vmware environment or is there a setting i have missed which points the linux box to the router eg.

Hello Naila

Take a look at this answer:

Device Programmability

Hello Naila It simply comes down to the network connection that your Linux based Git server has to the particular network device. You create credentials for a user in the device itself (either locally or via RADIUS) and then provide those credentials to your configuration on the Linux box. Then using various options such as those described in the lesson, you can access the device and manipulate the configuration as you see fit. I hope this has been helpful!
