AI Workflow · Week 12 in your hands today

Plain English in. Production Python out.

Describe a network task. Pick a library and vendor. Get a runnable script with Netmiko, NAPALM, or Nornir — wired with retries, logging, dry-run flags, and credentials from env. Built for engineers who actually push change.

Step 01 · Describe the task

What do you need the network to do?

Lab prompts

Six real engineering tasks. One click to try.

These are the exact kinds of prompts you'll write during Week 11 & 12 of the bootcamp. Click any card to drop it into the generator.

Automation use cases

The work this replaces.

Manual SSH sessions, copy-paste tickets, midnight change windows — wrapped into repeatable, version-controlled Python. Here's where engineers point this first.

Config backup at scale

Nightly running-config snapshots across hundreds of devices, dropped into git for diffing.

Firewall compliance audits

Flag any/any rules, expired objects, and shadowed policies on SRX, ASA, and Palo Alto.

Bulk config push

Roll out a new VLAN, ACL, or NAT rule to dozens of devices with a single command + dry-run.

Show-command harvesters

Pull 'show bgp', 'show interfaces', or 'show log' from many devices and parse into CSV/JSON.

Log triage assistants

Tail syslog or device logs and use Python + LLM calls to summarize incidents in plain English.

Inventory + drift detection

Diff current configs against a golden baseline and open a Jira ticket on drift.

This generator is a taste of Week 11 (AI Prompt Engineering) and Week 12 (AI-prompted Python automation). The bootcamp teaches you to build, audit, and trust scripts like these against real multi-vendor labs.
