Python package for interacting with IP Fabric Diagrams

IPFabric

ipfabric-diagrams is a Python module for connecting to and graphing topologies against an IP Fabric instance.

About

Founded in 2015, IP Fabric develops network infrastructure visibility and analytics solution to help enterprise network and security teams with network assurance and automation across multi-domain heterogeneous environments. From in-depth discovery, through graph visualization, to packet walks and complete network history, IP Fabric enables to confidently replace manual tasks necessary to handle growing network complexity driven by relentless digital transformation.

Versioning

Starting with IP Fabric version 5.0.x the python-ipfabric and python-ipfabric-diagrams will need to match your IP Fabric version. The API's are changing and instead of api/v1 they will now be api/v5.0.

Version 5.1 will have backwards compatability with version 5.0 however 6.0 will not support any 5.x versions. By ensuring that your ipfabric SDK's match your IP Fabric Major Version will ensure compatibility and will continue to work.
