cisco_ssapi

A Python API to Cisco's EOX (Smart Support Web Services API)

Cisco provides a SOAP API to EOX data through their Smart Support Web Services API. This cisco_ssapi module provides a Python wrapper around that interface to make it easy to retrieve EOX data from Cisco from Python.

Requirements

As of v0.7 this module requires the suds module.

Installation

Install like any other Python module: sudo python setup.py install

Usage

In addition to being a Python API to access EOX data, the cisco_ssapi module also provides some example scripts for access this information from the command line.

Example script usage:

• get_eox -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
• get_eox_products -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD
• get_eox_by_dates -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -s 2010-05-21 -e 2010-05-28
• get_eox_by_oid -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -h hardwareType OID1 OID2 ...
• get_eox_by_product -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD prodID1 prodID2 ...
• get_eox_by_sw -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -o osType sw1 sw2 ...
• get_eox_by_serial -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD serial1 serial2 ...

Look into the cisco_ssapi/scripts.py for the source to these scripts and as examples on using the API directly.
