Reseña del libro "Python Networking 101, Second Edition: Mastering the capability of network and socket programming, AsyncIO, network performance, simulations and Ansib (en Inglés)"
If you're a developer getting into networking for the first time or an IT pro looking to build practical automation skills, this second edition gives you a clear and structured path to master essential networking concepts and become a confident, hands-on Python network administrator. If you're looking to automate repetitive networking tasks, build tools for infrastructure, or become a network administrator, you'll find this book teaching all the skills, structure, and mindset to make it happen.You'll start off by getting the basics of Python down and then quickly move on to TCP, UDP, and socket programming. You'll work with protocols like HTTP, FTP, DNS, and email, and you'll use Python to automate everyday network tasks. As you read on, you'll dive into modern network automation using Netmiko, Paramiko, and NAPALM, manage asynchronous tasks with AsyncIO, and set up monitoring and analysis workflows through SNMP, ping3, iperf3, and Locust. You'll also use SimPy to simulate networks, program firewalls, scanning, encryption, and VPNs. You'll also get to work on configuration management and orchestration using Ansible. This will teach you how to automate server and network setups, manage software lifecycles, enforce standards, and integrate Python for advanced logic.This book is all about clarity and practicality, using simple, easy-to-follow examples that work in the real world. It's not meant to deal with complicated business scenarios, but it does cover the most important, routine and common jobs of network programming.Key FeaturesLearn the basics of Python syntax and data structures for network automation.Get the hang of TCP, UDP, and socket programming for real communication tasks.Practice your skills with HTTP, FTP, DNS, and email protocols using real-world Python scripts.Set up SSH connections and device configurations using Netmiko, Paramiko, and NAPALM.Take charge of asynchronous network operations with Python's AsyncIO library.Keep an eye on, look at, and test networks using SNMP, ping3, iperf3, Locust, and SimPy.Make your network security stronger by using firewalls, scanning, SSL/TLS, and VPN configurations.Take advantage of the NAPALM and Git integration to automate your configuration management and version control.With Ansible playbooks, roles, and automation workflows, you can orchestrate server and network setups.Table of ContentIntroduction to Python and NetworkingTCP, UDP and Socket ProgrammingWorking with Application LayerExploring Network AutomationNetwork Monitoring and AnalysisNetwork Security and PythonWorking with APIs and Network ServicesNetwork Programming with AsyncIONetwork Testing and SimulationNetwork Configuration ManagementAnsible and Python
