CONFIGURATION
This script requires some configuration to be added to your Netdisco
""~/environments/deployment.yml"" file, for example:
rancid:
rancid_home: /var/lib/rancid
down_age: '1 day'
delimiter: ':'
by_ip: [ other ]
by_hostname: [ other2 ]
groups:
switch: [ 'name:.*[Ss][Ww].*' ]
rtr: [ 'name:[rR]tr.*' ]
ap: [ 'name:[aA][pP].*' ]
vendormap:
"dell": force10
"dell:2024": dellnseries
Note that "netdisco-rancid-export" is not part of the automatic
scheduler built in to Netdisco. You should run this script via "cron"
just after your periodic "discoverall".
"rancid_home"
The location to write RANCID Group configuration files into. A
subdirectory for each Group will be created.
Default: ""/var/lib/rancid"".
"down_age"
This should be the same or greater than the interval between regular
discover jobs on your network. Devices which have not been discovered
within this time will be marked as ""down"" to RANCID.
Default: ""1 day"".
"delimiter"
RANCID version 3 uses a semicolon as delimiter. Set this to the
delimiter character if needed to be different from the default.
Default: "":"".
"vendormap"
If the device Vendor in Netdisco is not the same as the RANCID vendor
script, configure a mapping here. The left hand side (key) should be
the Netdisco vendor, the right hand side (value) should be the RANCID
vendor script name. You can also set the Netdisco vendor to be
""vendor:model"" for fine-grained control. See the synopsis for an
example.
"groups"
This dictionary maps RANCID Group names with configuration which will
match devices in the Netdisco database. The configuration is the same
as any of Netdisco's "*_only" settings, and accepts IP, prefix, device
property.
"by_ip"
List of RANCID Groups which will have Device IPs written to the RANCID
configuration file, instead of DNS or SNMP host names.
"by_hostname"
List of RANCID Groups which will have Device Hostname written to the
RANCID configuration file, instead of FQDN. This is done simply by
stripping the "domain_suffix" configuration item from the FQDN.
