Automation

Hi,

I am new to PyEZ and Linux.

Just tried my first script using PyEZ and could not connect to the device using the dev.open().

Device IP is reachable from the Linux machine and the netconf is also configured in the device.

Please advice how to make it working.

>>> from jnpr.junos import Device
>>> dev = Device(host="10.10.10.10", user="test", password="test123")
>>> dev.open()
Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi,

Can you hit tcp port 830 from the host that you are running the py script?

If SSH works from your client you can add port=22 to the open() command to use that port instead of 830.

Thanks Tim.

it works after i pass port = 22. So, the dev.open() by default uses tcp port 830 and not 22.

Yes that is correct.

Check out the API here, it details the default settings

How do you pass port 22 in the dev.open() command?

Device(host, user, password, port=22).open()
