So now it's time to roll up our sleeves
and do some real network automation work.
Well, we're actually going to be looking at a Python script that
interacts with a security appliance of the Cisco product
line.
In this case, we're going to be looking at Firepower Management
Center.
Now, here's the thing.
The objective is to interpret a basic Python script,
but unless you know Python and APIs, it's not that basic.
It can still feel a little fuzzy.
One of the lucky things about this,
though, is that Python is the most popular programming WEBVTT X-TIMESTAMP-MAP=LOCAL:00:00:00.000,MPEGTS:900000
though, is that Python is the most popular programming
language in the world because it's the easiest to read.
It kind of reads like an English sentence.
So what we're going to do in this skill
is we're going to pull up a script that I've already
created and break it down one step at a time,
talking about what is this script really doing right here
and understanding the flow of how
we interact with the appliance using Python.
Get ready.
It's going to be big and fun.
Let's get going.
