junos automation via netconf

I was working on some automation ideal and trying to come up with a script and found one that works


https://blog.karotte.org/2017/05/12/juniper-netconf-ssh/


#! /bin/bash
# Use like: bgpq3 ... stuff | netconf-merge-wrapper | ssh admin@router netconf
cat <<_END
<rpc>
    <load-configuration action="merge" format="text">
        <configuration-text>
_END
cat -
cat <<_END
        </configuration-text>
    </load-configuration>
</rpc>
_END
if [ "$1" == "commit" ]; then
        cat <<_END
<rpc>
    <commit/>
</rpc>
_END
fi


So what we are doing is running irrpt prefix generate and piping the output into the the wrapper and the into the junos device.

If you set the commit the rpc call with load the configuration. It's a very simplified means to update bgp prefixes for filter lists


irrpt_pfxgen <AS_NUMBER>  | ./wrappper.sh commit | ssh  kenfelix@<router ipv4 address>
