Unable to access Yang capabilities via Python ncclient

1.2k views Asked by At

I have a Cisco CSRv1000 with Cisco XE version 16.8.1a.

I have enabled netconf-yang and when i run the command ssh -2 -s [email protected] netconf it displays the YANG on CLI.

However if i run the following code on python, it gives an error ncclient.transport.errors.SSHError: Could not open socket to 172.30.43.115:830

My Code:

from ncclient import manager
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET

router = {
    "host": "172.30.43.115",
    "port": "830",
    "username": "admin",
    "password": "******",
}

with manager.connect(
    host=router["host"],
    port=router["port"],
    username=router["username"],
    password=router["password"],
    hostkey_verify=False,
    allow_agent=False,
    look_for_keys=False,
) as m:
    ip_schema = m.get_schema("ietf-ip")
    root = ET.fromstring(ip_schema.xml)
    yang_tree = list(root)[0].text
    f = open("ietf-ip.yang", "w")
    f.write(yang_tree)
    f.close()

Also, please find my show run on the router:

Installing Paramiko with 'pip install paramiko' did the job for me.
