## Introduction: What is ciscoconfparse?
Short answer: ciscoconfparse is a [Python][10] library
that helps you quickly answer questions like these about your
Cisco configurations:
- What interfaces are shutdown?
- Which interfaces are in trunk mode?
- What address and subnet mask is assigned to each interface?
- Which interfaces are missing a critical command?
- Is this configuration missing a standard config line?
It can help you:
- Audit existing router / switch / firewall / wlc configurations
- Modify existing configurations
- Build new configurations
Speaking generally, the library examines an IOS-style config and breaks
it into a set of linked parent / child relationships. You can perform
complex queries about these relationships.
[![Cisco IOS config: Parent / child][11]][11]
## Generic Usage
The following code will parse a configuration stored in
`exampleswitch.conf` and select interfaces that are shutdown.
In this case, the parent is a line containing `interface` and
the child is a line containing the word `shutdown`.
```python
from ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse
parse = CiscoConfParse('exampleswitch.conf', syntax='ios')
for intf_obj in parse.find_parent_objects('^interface', '^\s+shutdown'):
print("Shutdown: " + intf_obj.text)
```
The next example will find the IP address assigned to interfaces.
```python
from ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse
parse = CiscoConfParse('exampleswitch.conf', syntax='ios')
for ccp_obj in parse.find_objects('^interface'):
intf_name = ccp_obj.re_match_typed('^interface\s+(\S.+?)$')
# Search children of all interfaces for a regex match and return
# the value matched in regex match group 1. If there is no match,
# return a default value: ''
intf_ip_addr = ccp_obj.re_match_iter_typed(
r'ip\saddress\s(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)\s', result_type=str,
group=1, default='')
print(f"{intf_name}: {intf_ip_addr}")
```
## Cisco IOS Factory Usage
CiscoConfParse has a special feature that abstracts common IOS / NXOS / ASA / IOSXR fields; at this time, it is only supported on those configuration types. You will see factory parsing in CiscoConfParse code as parsing the configuration with `factory=True`. A fraction of these pre-parsed Cisco IOS fields follows; some variables are not used below, but simply called out for quick reference.
```python
from ciscoconfparse import IPv4Obj, IPv6Obj

## Are there private copies of CiscoConfParse()?
Yes. [Cisco Systems][27] maintains their own copy of `CiscoConfParse()`. The terms of the GPLv3
license allow this as long as they don't distribute their modified private copy in
binary form. Also refer to this [GPLv3 License primer / GPLv3 101][45]. Officially, [modified
copies of CiscoConfParse source-code must also be licensed as GPLv3][45].
Dear [Cisco Systems][27]: please consider porting your improvements back into
the [`github ciscoconfparse repo`](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse).
## Are you releasing licensing besides GPLv3?
[I will not](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse/issues/270#issuecomment-1774035592); however, you can take the solution Cisco does above as long as you comply with the GPLv3 terms. If it's truly a problem for your company, there are commercial solutions available (to include purchasing the project, or hiring me).
## What if we don\'t use Cisco IOS?
Don\'t let that stop you.
As of CiscoConfParse 1.2.4, you can parse [brace-delimited configurations][13] into a Cisco IOS style (see [Github Issue \#17][14]), which means that CiscoConfParse can parse these configurations:
- Juniper Networks Junos
- Palo Alto Networks Firewall configurations
- F5 Networks configurations
CiscoConfParse also handles anything that has a Cisco IOS style of configuration, which includes:
- Cisco IOS, Cisco Nexus, Cisco IOS-XR, Cisco IOS-XE, Aironet OS, Cisco ASA, Cisco CatOS
- Arista EOS
- Brocade
- HP Switches
- Force 10 Switches
- Dell PowerConnect Switches
- Extreme Networks
- Enterasys
- Screenos

## Github Star History
[![Github Star History Chart][40]][40]
## What is the pythonic way of handling script credentials?
1. Never hard-code credentials
2. Use [python-dotenv](https://github.com/theskumar/python-dotenv)
## Is this a tool, or is it artwork?
That depends on who you ask. Many companies use CiscoConfParse as part of their
network engineering toolbox; others regard it as a form of artwork.
## Pre-requisites
[The ciscoconfparse python package][3] requires Python versions 3.7+ (note: Python version 3.7.0 has a bug - ref [Github issue \#117][18], but version 3.7.1 works); the OS should not matter.
## Other Resources
- [Dive into Python3](http://www.diveintopython3.net/) is a good way to learn Python
- [Team CYMRU][30] has a [Secure IOS Template][29], which is especially useful for external-facing routers / switches
- [Cisco\'s Guide to hardening IOS devices][31]
- [Center for Internet Security Benchmarks][32] (An email address, cookies, and javascript are required)
## Bug Tracker and Support
- Please report any suggestions, bug reports, or annoyances with a [github bug report][24].
- If you\'re having problems with general python issues, consider searching for a solution on [Stack Overflow][33]. If you can\'t find a solution for your problem or need more help, you can [ask on Stack Overflow][34] or [reddit/r/Python][39].
- If you\'re having problems with your Cisco devices, you can contact:
- [Cisco TAC][28]
- [reddit/r/Cisco][35]
- [reddit/r/networking][36]
- [NetworkEngineering.se][23]
## Dependencies
- [Python 3](https://python.org/)
- [passlib](https://github.com/glic3rinu/passlib)
- [toml](https://github.com/uiri/toml)
- [dnspython](https://github.com/rthalley/dnspython)
- [hier_config](https://github.com/netdevops/hier_config)
- [loguru](https://github.com/Delgan/loguru)
- [deprecated](https://github.com/tantale/deprecated)
## Unit-Tests and Development
- We are manually disabling some [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io/) alerts with:
- `#pragma warning disable S1313`
- `#pragma warning restore S1313`
- Where `S1313` is a False-positive that [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io) flags in [CiscoConfParse](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse/).
- Those `#pragma warning` lines should be carefully-fenced to ensure that we don't disable a [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io/) alert that is useful.
### Semantic Versioning and Conventional Commits
- At this point, [CiscoConfParse][3] does NOT adhere to [Semantic Versioning][49]
- Although we added [commitizen][48] as a dev dependency, we are NOT enforcing commit rules (such as [Conventional Commits][50]) yet.
### Execute Unit tests
The project\'s [test workflow][1] checks ciscoconfparse on Python versions 3.7 and higher, as well as a [pypy JIT][22] executable.
If you already git cloned the repo and want to manually run tests either run with `make test` from the base directory, or manually run with [`pytest`][63] in a unix-like system...
```shell
$ cd tests
$ pytest ./test*py
...
```
### Execute Test Coverage Line-Miss Report
If you already have have `pytest` and `pytest-cov` installed, run a test line miss report as shown below.
```shell
$ # Install the latest ciscoconfparse
$ # (assuming the latest code is on pypi)
$ pip install -U ciscoconfparse
$ pip install -U pytest-cov
$ cd tests
$ pytest --cov-report=term-missing --cov=ciscoconfparse ./
...
```
## Editing the Package
This uses the example of editing the package on a git branch called `develop`...
- `git clone https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse`
- `cd ciscoconfparse`
- `git branch develop`
- `git checkout develop`
- Add / modify / delete on the `develop` branch
- `make test`
- If tests run clean, `git commit` all the pending changes on the `develop` branch
- If you plan to publish this as an official version rev, edit the version number in [pyproject.toml][12]. In the future, we want to integrate `commitizen` to manage versioning.
- `git checkout main`
- `git merge develop`
- `make test`
- `git push origin main`
- `make pypi`
## Sphinx Documentation
Building the ciscoconfparse documentation tarball comes down to this one wierd trick:
- `cd sphinx-doc/`
- `pip install -r ./requirements.txt; # install Sphinx dependencies`
- `pip install -r ../requirements.txt; # install ccp dependencies`
- `make html`

You can perform\ncomplex queries about these relationships.\n\n[![Cisco IOS config: Parent / child][11]][11]\n\n## Generic Usage\n\nThe following code will parse a configuration stored in\n`exampleswitch.conf` and select interfaces that are shutdown.\n\nIn this case, the parent is a line containing `interface` and\nthe child is a line containing the word `shutdown`.\n\n```python\nfrom ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse\n\nparse = CiscoConfParse('exampleswitch.conf', syntax='ios')\n\nfor intf_obj in parse.find_parent_objects('^interface', '^\\s+shutdown'):\n print(\"Shutdown: \" + intf_obj.text)\n```\n\nThe next example will find the IP address assigned to interfaces.\n\n```python\nfrom ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse\n\nparse = CiscoConfParse('exampleswitch.conf', syntax='ios')\n\nfor ccp_obj in parse.find_objects('^interface'):\n\n intf_name = ccp_obj.re_match_typed('^interface\\s+(\\S.+?)$')\n\n # Search children of all interfaces for a regex match and return\n # the value matched in regex match group 1. If there is no match,\n # return a default value: ''\n intf_ip_addr = ccp_obj.re_match_iter_typed(\n r'ip\\saddress\\s(\\d+\\.\\d+\\.\\d+\\.\\d+)\\s', result_type=str,\n group=1, default='')\n print(f\"{intf_name}: {intf_ip_addr}\")\n```\n\n## Cisco IOS Factory Usage\n\nCiscoConfParse has a special feature that abstracts common IOS / NXOS / ASA / IOSXR fields; at this time, it is only supported on those configuration types. You will see factory parsing in CiscoConfParse code as parsing the configuration with `factory=True`. A fraction of these pre-parsed Cisco IOS fields follows; some variables are not used below, but simply called out for quick reference.\n\n```python\nfrom ciscoconfparse import IPv4Obj, IPv6Obj\nfrom ciscoconfparse import CiscoConfParse\n\n##############################################################################\n# Parse an example Cisco IOS HSRP configuration from:\n# tests/fixtures/configs/sample_08.ios\n#\n# !\n# interface FastEthernet0/0\n# ip address 172.16.2.1 255.255.255.0\n# ipv6 dhcp server IPV6_2FL_NORTH_LAN\n# ipv6 address fd01:ab00::/64 eui-64\n# ipv6 address fe80::1 link-local\n# ipv6 enable\n# ipv6 ospf 11 area 0\n# standby 110 ip 172.16.2.254\n# standby 110 ipv6 autoconfig\n# standby 110 priority 150\n# standby 110 preempt delay minimum 15\n# standby 110 track Dialer1 75\n# standby 110 track FastEthernet 0/1\n# standby 110 track FastEthernet1/0 30\n# standby 111 ip 172.16.2.253\n# standby 111 priority 150\n# standby 111 preempt delay minimum 15\n# standby 111 track Dialer1 50\n#\n##############################################################################\nparse = CiscoConfParse('tests/fixtures/configs/sample_08.ios', syntax='ios', factory=True)\nfor ccp_obj in parse.find_objects('^interface'):\n\n #

[Cisco Systems][27] maintains their own copy of `CiscoConfParse()`. The terms of the GPLv3\nlicense allow this as long as they don't distribute their modified private copy in\nbinary form. Also refer to this [GPLv3 License primer / GPLv3 101][45]. Officially, [modified\ncopies of CiscoConfParse source-code must also be licensed as GPLv3][45].\n\nDear [Cisco Systems][27]: please consider porting your improvements back into\nthe [`github ciscoconfparse repo`](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse).\n\n## Are you releasing licensing besides GPLv3?\n\n[I will not](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse/issues/270#issuecomment-1774035592); however, you can take the solution Cisco does above as long as you comply with the GPLv3 terms. If it's truly a problem for your company, there are commercial solutions available (to include purchasing the project, or hiring me).\n\n## What if we don\\'t use Cisco IOS?\n\nDon\\'t let that stop you.\n\nAs of CiscoConfParse 1.2.4, you can parse [brace-delimited configurations][13] into a Cisco IOS style (see [Github Issue \\#17][14]), which means that CiscoConfParse can parse these configurations:\n\n- Juniper Networks Junos\n- Palo Alto Networks Firewall configurations\n- F5 Networks configurations\n\nCiscoConfParse also handles anything that has a Cisco IOS style of configuration, which includes:\n\n- Cisco IOS, Cisco Nexus, Cisco IOS-XR, Cisco IOS-XE, Aironet OS, Cisco ASA, Cisco CatOS\n- Arista EOS\n- Brocade\n- HP Switches\n- Force 10 Switches\n- Dell PowerConnect Switches\n- Extreme Networks\n- Enterasys\n- Screenos\n\n## Docs\n\n- Blogs\n - Kirk Byers published [a ciscoconfparse blog piece](https://pynet.twb-tech.com/blog/parsing-configurations-w-ciscoconfparse.html)\n - Henry \u00d6lsner published [a ciscoconfparse blog piece](https://codingnetworker.com/2016/06/parse-cisco-ios-configuration-ciscoconfparse/)\n- The latest copy of the docs are [archived on the web][15]\n- There is also a [CiscoConfParse Tutorial][16]\n\n## Installation and Downloads\n\n- Use `poetry` for Python3.x\\... :\n\n python -m pip install ciscoconfparse\n\nIf you\\'re interested in the source, you can always pull from the [github repo][17]:\n\n- Download from [the github repo][17]: :\n\n git clone git://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse\n cd ciscoconfparse/\n python -m pip install .\n\n## Github Star History\n\n[![Github Star History Chart][40]][40]\n\n## What is the pythonic way of handling script credentials?\n\n1. Never hard-code credentials\n2. Use [python-dotenv](https://github.com/theskumar/python-dotenv)\n\n\n## Is this a tool, or is it artwork?\n\nThat depends on who you ask. Many companies use CiscoConfParse as part of their\nnetwork engineering toolbox; others regard it as a form of artwork.\n\n## Pre-requisites\n\n[The ciscoconfparse python package][3] requires Python versions 3.7+ (note: Python version 3.7.0 has a bug - ref [Github issue \\#117][18], but version 3.7.1 works); the OS should not matter.\n\n\n## Other Resources\n\n- [Dive into Python3](http://www.diveintopython3.net/) is a good way to learn Python\n- [Team CYMRU][30] has a [Secure IOS Template][29], which is especially useful for external-facing routers / switches\n- [Cisco\\'s Guide to hardening IOS devices][31]\n- [Center for Internet Security Benchmarks][32] (An email address, cookies, and javascript are required)\n\n## Bug Tracker and Support\n\n- Please report any suggestions, bug reports, or annoyances with a [github bug report][24].\n- If you\\'re having problems with general python issues, consider searching for a solution on [Stack Overflow][33]. If you can\\'t find a solution for your problem or need more help, you can [ask on Stack Overflow][34] or [reddit/r/Python][39].\n- If you\\'re having problems with your Cisco devices, you can contact:\n - [Cisco TAC][28]\n - [reddit/r/Cisco][35]\n - [reddit/r/networking][36]\n - [NetworkEngineering.se][23]\n\n## Dependencies\n\n- [Python 3](https://python.org/)\n- [passlib](https://github.com/glic3rinu/passlib)\n- [toml](https://github.com/uiri/toml)\n- [dnspython](https://github.com/rthalley/dnspython)\n- [hier_config](https://github.com/netdevops/hier_config)\n- [loguru](https://github.com/Delgan/loguru)\n- [deprecated](https://github.com/tantale/deprecated)\n\n\n## Unit-Tests and Development\n\n- We are manually disabling some [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io/) alerts with:\n - `#pragma warning disable S1313`\n - `#pragma warning restore S1313`\n - Where `S1313` is a False-positive that [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io) flags in [CiscoConfParse](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse/).\n - Those `#pragma warning` lines should be carefully-fenced to ensure that we don't disable a [SonarCloud](https://sonarcloud.io/) alert that is useful.\n\n### Semantic Versioning and Conventional Commits\n\n- At this point, [CiscoConfParse][3] does NOT adhere to [Semantic Versioning][49]\n- Although we added [commitizen][48] as a dev dependency, we are NOT enforcing commit rules (such as [Conventional Commits][50]) yet.\n\n### Execute Unit tests\n\nThe project\\'s [test workflow][1] checks ciscoconfparse on Python versions 3.7 and higher, as well as a [pypy JIT][22] executable.\n\nIf you already git cloned the repo and want to manually run tests either run with `make test` from the base directory, or manually run with [`pytest`][63] in a unix-like system...\n\n```shell\n$ cd tests\n$ pytest ./test*py\n...\n```\n\n### Execute Test Coverage Line-Miss Report\n\nIf you already have have `pytest` and `pytest-cov` installed, run a test line miss report as shown below.\n\n```shell\n$ # Install the latest ciscoconfparse\n$ # (assuming the latest code is on pypi)\n$ pip install -U ciscoconfparse\n$ pip install -U pytest-cov\n$ cd tests\n$ pytest --cov-report=term-missing --cov=ciscoconfparse ./\n...\n```\n\n\n## Editing the Package\n\nThis uses the example of editing the package on a git branch called `develop`...\n\n- `git clone https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse`\n- `cd ciscoconfparse`\n- `git branch develop`\n- `git checkout develop`\n- Add / modify / delete on the `develop` branch\n- `make test`\n- If tests run clean, `git commit` all the pending changes on the `develop` branch\n- If you plan to publish this as an official version rev, edit the version number in [pyproject.toml][12]. In the future, we want to integrate `commitizen` to manage versioning.\n- `git checkout main`\n- `git merge develop`\n- `make test`\n- `git push origin main`\n- `make pypi`\n\n## Sphinx Documentation\n\nBuilding the ciscoconfparse documentation tarball comes down to this one wierd trick:\n\n- `cd sphinx-doc/`\n- `pip install -r ./requirements.txt; # install Sphinx dependencies`\n- `pip install -r ../requirements.txt; # install ccp dependencies`\n- `make html`\n\n## License and Copyright\n\n[ciscoconfparse][3] is licensed [GPLv3][21]\n\n- Copyright (C) 2022-2023 David Michael Pennington\n- Copyright (C) 2022 David Michael Pennington at WellSky\n- Copyright (C) 2022 David Michael Pennington\n- Copyright (C) 2019-2021 David Michael Pennington at Cisco Systems / ThousandEyes\n- Copyright (C) 2012-2019 David Michael Pennington at Samsung Data Services\n- Copyright (C) 2011-2012 David Michael Pennington at Dell Computer Corp\n- Copyright (C) 2007-2011 David Michael Pennington\n\nThe word \\\"Cisco\\\" is a registered trademark of [Cisco Systems][27].\n\n## Author\n\n[ciscoconfparse][3] was written by [David Michael Pennington][25] (mike \\[\\~at\\~\\] pennington \\[.dot.\\] net).\n\n## Interesting Users (and some downstream projects)\n\nThe following are featured [CiscoConfParse](https://github.com/mpenning/ciscoconfparse/) users / projects:\n\n- [salt](https://github.com/saltstack/salt)\n- [suzieq](https://github.com/netenglabs/suzieq): SuzieQ collects, normalizes, and stores timestamped data that is otherwise only available to engineers by logging into each device, providing a rich data lake that can be queried and leveraged for next generation monitoring and alerting\n- [netwalk](https://github.com/icovada/netwalk): Python library to discover, parse, analyze and change Cisco switched networks\n- [netlint](https://github.com/Kircheneer/netlint)\n- [cisco_switchport_auditor](https://github.com/corvese/cisco_switchport_auditor): Parses Cisco switch configuration into Switch & Interface objects to access configuration details of the aforementioned in a programatic manner.
