netbox-nso-plugin

NetBox 4.6 plugin that integrates NetBox with Cisco NSO via the nso-adapter REST API — a bidirectional sync: device state is imported into NetBox, and operator-accepted values become intent that is applied back to the device through NSO (reconcile-mode commits).

Features

  • Mark NetBox devices as NSO-managed and choose the managed scopes (interfaces, routing, VLANs/L2, SNMP, logging, …) per device.
  • Device NSO tab: counts-first category summaries with lazy row expansion, a merged per-interface table (enabled / description / IPs / MTU / switchport), pagination + search, and inline editing of operator-owned values.
  • Read mirrors for: interface attributes/IPs/MTU, VLAN database, switchport, SVI/IRB, dot1q subinterfaces, L2 services (epipe/vpls SAPs), LACP/LAG, IS-IS (incl. levels, segment-routing, Flex-Algo), OSPF, BGP (peers/AFs/templates), route policies, redistribution, static routes, BFD, SNMP (secret-safe), logging hosts — materialised into native NetBox / netbox-routing objects with NSO*State status overlays and clobber-safe 3-way merge.
  • Accept → Apply write path: Accept promotes a value to NetBox-owned intent; one device Apply commits all pending scopes via the NSO *-reconciler services, with a two-panel preview (intent summary + native device diff). Greenfield writes for operator-created routes, VLANs, policies, SVIs, subinterfaces and more.
  • Drift handling: value-aware drift display, plus intent split-brain detection (orphaned and partial) with one-click re-sync of the adapter intent mirror — never touches the device.
  • Adapter actions from the tab: Sync, Detect drift, Test connection, Apply, with job polling.
  • Device onboarding NetBox → NSO (create node, fetch host keys, sync-from) from the NSO Devices dashboard.
  • Exposes NSODeviceManagement at /api/plugins/nso/device-management/ for the adapter's self-healing reconcile path.

  • NetBox ≥ 4.6.0
  • Python ≥ 3.12
