Python code to fetch info from Palo Alto Firewall (PANOS) using Netmiko

In this post, I will be using the python code below to login a my Palo Alto Firewall using NETMIKO.
the code defines two functions that we will use to get the information we need from the Firewall.

note that you can replicate the function to add other (net_connect.send_commands)

then print out, or even more that you can also add more IP addresses 

for example: pan2_ip and pan3_ip then you will only need to use the last two lines of the code:

pan2_ip= get_int(pan2_ip)

print(pan2_ip)

import netmiko

pan_ip= '192.168.1.250'

username='python'

password='python1234'

device_type='paloalto_panos' #this must be one of the types supported by Netmiko

port='22'

#get the system information of the PANOS

def get_info(ip):

net_connect = netmiko.ConnectHandler(ip=ip, device_type=device_type, username=username,password=password, port=port)

return net_connect.send_command('show system info')

pan_info= get_info(pan_ip)

print(pan_info)

#get the IP information of the PANOS

def get_int(ip):

net_connect = netmiko.ConnectHandler(ip=ip, device_type=device_type, username=username,password=password, port=port)

return net_connect.send_command('show interface all')

pan_ip= get_int(pan_ip)

print(pan_ip)

#end
