Codec Compliance Report

The Codec Compliance Report is a script that retrieves configuration and status information from a list of endpoints and generates a CSV report. It uses the Cisco API to communicate with the endpoints and extract the necessary data.

Features

• Retrieve endpoint configuration and status information
• Generate a CSV report with the collected data
• Apply configuration changes to endpoints (e.g., MTU, SNMP)
• Error handling for failed API requests

Installation

1. Clone the repository

2. Navigate to the project directory:

   cd codec-compliance-report
   

3. Install the required dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt
   
   

Usage

1. Prepare the list of endpoints by creating a text file called list.txt in the project directory. Each endpoint should be listed on a separate line.

2. Configure the script by editing the config.yaml file. Specify the necessary details such as API credentials and file paths.

3. Run the script:

   python report.py
   
   

4. The script will retrieve the configuration and status information from each endpoint, apply any necessary changes, and generate a CSV report in the output directory.

Configuration

The config.yaml file contains the following configuration options:

• api_username: Username for API authentication
• api_password: Password for API authentication
• path: Path to the project directory
• host_vars_path: Path to store the intermediate host variables XML files
• output_path: Path to store the generated CSV report and log files

Make sure to populate the list.txt file with the list of endpoints to be processed.
