Python Migrator of PHPIPAM to Netbox

This script was made to read IPAM information of PHPIPAM, check if it exists in Netbox, and push it if don't.

Requirements

You need the following Python packages:

• os
• pynetbox
• requests
• pandas
• slugify

You can install them all via pip:

pip install pynetbox requests pandas slugify

You also need to create a PHPIPAM API APP. That's how PHPIPAM programs its API interaction. I created the "netboxmig" app, and a PHPIPAM username with the same name. In this case, the password of the user is the same as the API KEY.

One last requirement is the Environment Variables. To avoid stuffing credentials in our code, I'm getting this info from Environment Variables of our system. You need to create 4 variables:

• netbox_api_token
• netbox_url
• phpipam_api_token
• phpipam_url

Make sure to add the URLs without / at the end.

Afterwards, the script is ready to roll. Today, it supports the migration of VRFs, VLANs, L2 Domains (as VLAN Groups), Prefixes and IP Addresses.

Contribution

I believe the script can be more efficient, but i'm no Python Ninja, so feel free to suggest changes, fork it, whatever.
