CiberC L3VPN Management Multivendor With Idempotencia and Notify
Project to automatically deploy L3VPN in a multivendor environment, with the ability to send notifications to WebexTeams through a Bot. Plataforms iosxr
, ios
, huawei_vrp
, junos
Technology stack
Python 3.8+ or higher, Nornir 3.3.0 and Napalm 4.1.0
Status
There is only one version that has been tested and validated in an emulated environment (EVE-NG with a multivendor ISP topology).
Currently, the project has the ability to send notifications to WebexTeams once a registered command has been completed.
Idempotence (Configs)
The idempotence of the system will depend on the 'dry run' manually sent by the user. The user will handle the Napalm system for commits.
Complete
This complete procedure is available for Huawei
, Cisco IOS XE
, and Junos
.
Partial
If we remember, Cisco IOS XR
currently does not have a Napalm Commit Confirm
process in its system. However, CiberC has created a process to provide partial DIFF support and allow for partial idempotence support with Commit Confirm
, based on dry run
.

Use Case Description
Service providers who wish to implement L3VPN services in an automated way, with support for multi-vendor environments, can generate a standard model for service deployment using this tool. Additionally, this tool is useful for companies that already have this service and require automated configuration for multiple devices, saving time in implementation and validation. An important process in this platform is the notification system in Webex Teams.
Install
python3 -m pip install ciberc-l3vpn-notify
Manual Steps to install in Ubuntu workstation (automation station)
git clone https://github.com/dev-ciberc/ciberc_l3vpn_notify.git
cd ciberc_l3vpn_notify
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
bash build.sh
Configuration
Environment Variables
export WEBEX_ACCESS_TOKEN=xxxxxxx
export LIST_USER_NOTIFY=xxxxxxx
WEBEX_ACCESS_TOKEN
: Token generated when registering a Bot in WebexTeams Cisco.
LIST_USER_NOTIFY
: Each email will be separated by ,
Inventory
For the correct configuration of the inventory, we rely on two Nornir files, specifically hosts.yaml
and defaults.yaml
, which will be located in the root directory where the CLI program will be executed.

Examples
Command L3VPN Configure
This command configures L3VPN for one or all devices.
Example for specific devices:
ciberc-l3vpn configure --device=PE1
(.venv) ➜ ciberc_l3vpn_notify git:(main) ✗ ciberc-l3vpn configure --device=PE1

Usage
To configure these variables, you would need to modify the values in the defaults.yaml
and hosts.yaml
files.
In defaults.yaml
, you can change the values of the following variables:
local_bgp_as
: This is the local BGP AS number.vpn_name
: This is the name of the VPN.vpn_rd
: This is the VPN Route Distinguisher.vpn_rt
: This is the VPN Route Target.neighbor_remote_as
: This is the remote BGP AS number.
In hosts.yaml
, you can change the values of the following variables for each host:
hostname
: This is the IP address or hostname of the device.port
: This is the SSH port number.username
: This is the SSH username.password
: This is the SSH password.platform
: This is the platform of the device.vpn_int_ip
: This is the IP address of the VPN interface.vpn_int_mask
: This is the subnet mask of the VPN interface.interface_connect_CE
: This is the interface that connects to the CE device.vpn_bpg_ce_neighbor_ip
: This is the IP address of the BGP neighbor on the CE device.
After modifying these variables, you can use the tool to deploy the L3VPN service with the updated configuration.
