Automating ASA-to-Meraki Migrations with AI | Ep. 96 This live stream is about a project on migrating 3,000 Cisco ASA firewalls to Meraki MX over three years. Less than 10% in, the manual work was already unsustainable, parsing configs, writing migration plans, re-creating policies in dashboard, running cutover steps by hand. When Riley joined the project, an engineer had built a Python script that parsed ASA configs to an Excel file. Using AI, Riley expanded from that starting point to automate the migration process with three tools, all leveraging the Meraki dashboard API: * A config parser that generates Method of Procedure documents. * A tool that translates and pushes firewall policies to Meraki via API. * And a web app for executing change windows without touching the dashboard.

Most network engineers are still managing complex infrastructures using flat tables and static diagrams. But networks aren't linear—they are deeply interconnected webs of relationships. If you want to truly understand your blast radius, identify single points of failure, or automate troubleshooting, you need a Network Knowledge Graph. We just released episode 2 of the second season of the Mostly Human Show: "Build Your First Network Knowledge Graph". Whether you're into #NetworkAutomation or #DataScience, this is the next step in modern observability. 📺 Watch the full video here: https://lnkd.in/gUkSnhNe #NetworkEngineering #KnowledgeGraph #CiscoDevNet #Python #Neo4j #InfrastructureAsCode #Observability #TechTutorial

Network AI Agents in Action | Ep. 97 Ever wondered what happens when AI agents take over network operations? In this live streawm, Pedro Damasceno will demo his personal project: autonomous AI agents in a simulated network lab in real time! We'll watch them detect issues, troubleshoot and reconfigure devices. We'll explore agentic architecture, best practices, guardrails, security concerns and scalability. Expect live chaos, real-time problem-solving and a glimpse into the future. Come hang out and see AI agents do the heavy lifting!

Use this Cursor command to run GitHub Copilot #CodeReview from the terminal - https://lnkd.in/g6VvVfRD - It tracks what's been reviewed per branch so you can iterate before submitting your PR. #AI #DeveloperTools

Great to see NetClaw connect to Cisco’s DevNet Content Search MCP — giving agents live, official Meraki and Catalyst Center API docs instead of guesses from stale training data. Thanks for building on this John Capobianco Cisco DevNet #AI #API #API4AI

Cisco RADKit: Your Network Automation Dev Kit, Fully Unleashed | Ep. 95 Collecting data across a network is a daunting task: hopping between terminals, juggling credentials and protocols, cross-referencing configurations: all just to get a bit of intel from your devices. With this in mind, Cisco RADKit (Remote Automation Development Kit) was born. A Python-based SDK for efficient, scalable interactions with local and remote equipment. No reachability, credentials, or protocol drama. You may know it from TAC, but there's so much more to it with just a pinch of code. Join us to find out more!

Poncho, the pleasure is all mine my friend! Looking forward to this episode! Join us tomorrow morning at 9:00AM PDT!

Automated Compute Infrastructure Setup with Intersight API | Ep. 94 Deploying complex AI infrastructure, such as Cisco AI Pods, often involves intricate, time-consuming manual configurations. This live stream will demonstrate how to dramatically accelerate and standardize the deployment of AI platforms, starting from unconfigured devices to a fully operational AI environment. This approach ensures consistency, reduces human error, and significantly cuts down deployment time. You'll leave this session with ideas to help you: - Automate the end-to-end deployment of complex AI infrastructure - Leverage Intersight's API for rapid, consistent AI platform setup - Integrate automation scripts for enhanced efficiency This session is ideal for network architects, DevOps engineers, and IT professionals involved in deploying AI/ML infrastructure.

Transforming Networks with Cisco Workflows | Ep. 93 Cisco Workflows transforms network automation and orchestration. This innovative solution seamlessly integrates Cisco and third-party automation controllers using REST-API, PowerShell, and SSH. Cisco Workflows enables users to create comprehensive workflows for end-to-end orchestration across various products, such as automating a branch SD-WAN router, Catalyst switching, and Meraki APs, all within a unified network interface. This session provides an in-depth overview of the platform, demonstrating its capabilities with on-prem management platforms and showcasing complete network automation. Additionally, it highlights the benefits of a collaborative DevOps approach in overcoming deployment challenges and boosting operational efficiency. The session also showcases the integration of Cisco products with low-code/no-code solutions to streamline IT processes and enable seamless project deployment.
