Course requirements:

You should have a great desire to learn programming and do it in a hands-on fashion, without having to watch countless lectures filled with slides and theory.
You should already be familiar with networking concepts like: Routing, SSH, Telnet, SNMP.
I will provide a fully configured virtual machine with all the necessary software (Python modules, MySQL, IDE). This way you can save time and start writing code as soon as possible.
I am going to use only free software throughout the course: Python 2.7, Linux, GNS3.
You need to find yourself a Cisco IOS image (from Cisco’s official website – contract required) to load into GNS3 or practice all the concepts on real network devices you have at your job/home.
All you need is a decent PC/Laptop (2GHz CPU, 4GB RAM). You will get the rest from me.

*** Why would you take this course? ***

Do you want to become a Python Developer without having to spend a lot of money on books and boring theoretical courses?

Are you a network professional who wants to start automating network tasks using Python?

Or maybe you’re seeking a raise or even a career change?

Join thousands of successful students who have decided to learn Python, upgrade their networking skills and boost their careers using this 100% hands-on course!

*** What’s this course all about? ***

Python network programming (v2.7.3) course aimed not only at network professionals, but at anyone having little or no experience in coding or network automation and a great desire to start learning Python from scratch. This hands-on Python Network Programming training takes you from “Hello World!” to complex network applications in less than 15 hours.

During this course you will learn Python concepts which are relevant to your networking job and build some amazing network tools using Python:

Python App#1: Subnet calculator.

Python App#2: Configuring multiple network devices concurrently via SSH or Telnet.

Python App#3: DHCP client simulator for testing a DHCP server in the local network.

Python App#4: Collecting information from routers and storing it in a MySQL database.

Python App#5: OSPF network discovery via SNMP. Building the OSPF topology.

Python App#6: Basic network sniffer.

Python App#7: Configuration file comparator.

Sounds unbelievable given your current programming experience? Well, it’s true! How?

First, you will learn and practice every Python key concept, which is explained in one or more video lectures, followed by a short quiz. Each video is filled with relevant examples, in a learn-by-doing fashion and the quizzes will help you consolidate the main ideas behind each Python topic.

After laying the foundation (and also exploring some advanced Python topics), you will dive right into the real-life network scenarios and apply your knowledge to build 7 great network tools using the power of Python.

Equipped with working files, network topologies and Python code samples (in .txt and .py formats), you will be able to work alongside me on each lecture and each application. I will provide a virtual machine with all the Python modules already installed and also the full code for each application, so you can save time and start coding and testing on the spot.

We will use emulated routers in GNS3 to test our Python apps in a network environment, so you can see the actual results of running your Python code. You need to find yourself a Cisco IOS image (from Cisco’s official website – contract required) to load into GNS3 or practice all the concepts on real network devices you have at your job/home.

I encourage you to learn Python, an amazingly beginner-friendly programming language and take your (networking) job to a higher level of automation.

Reviews:

“This course is quite useful for both learning the Python from scratch and gaining the CLI automation skills (Cisco IOS and Linux Shell are covered in this course).
If you already have entry networking or QA skills, you will be able to think up and independently develop a lot of improvements for author’s applications. As I came to the developing of 6th application, I had enough skills to implement my ideas, solve new bugs and even understand an information that is not covered in this course.
Mihai (course’s author) is using a very simple language, so you will not have problems getting a new information.
After this course I am ready to automate any task to simplify an interoperation with Cisco routers and switches. Actually, same methods are available for the other vendors. Very valuable course for any kind of automation developers!!!
Some ideas for Mihai:
1) Describe how to handle the recursive calls of function, because one of my algorithms borns some useless function’s flows while handling the invalid user’s inputs. I undestood how to terminate a recursion and exit out from the exhausted function’s flow manually. But I still have some “garbage” flows which is just hanging before the termination of the script.
This case is not covered in this course and I was balked to it while implementing one of my ideas for improving the 7th application. Actually my idea just covers all the cases of unusual user’s and router’s behavior (invalid credentials, implemented telnet security, passed timeouts, identification of “#” or “>” modes…). I decided to handle all of this cases without termination a script just for additional practice
Even though my script operates and it is not possible to crash a workflow manually, it devours the additional memory because of garbage flows. For example, if I will use the same recursion handling for a bruteforcing, my script will born flows again and again before the memory exhaustion. Or, even after successful bruteforce, this garbage flows will still hanging without any actions.
The examples of handling a recursion flows is available in Internet, but it will more simple to undestand using the Mihai’s video lesson
2) It can be useful and fun to add some materials to build a basic GUI (or better – WebGUI). Because it is very useful to send a CLI commands using a custom GUI I am talking about an implementation of web forms, radio buttons that implies to a CLI command. Some networking and security vendors are still developing their WebGUIs basing on CLIs. So this skill will be quite valuable for networking and QA guys.” (Aleksandr Sannikov)

“Good, learnt a lot in a short time. One improvement will be to add assignments and grade students as per assignments. This will force learning.” (Nagesh Devisetti)

“Fast pace course but good overview of language. Didn’t gone through the next phase of the course but it would be good to have all the concept build by simple step by step program from the start so the student can learn and practice while following the each section of the course and all work towards the final product or program. Hope I make sense and help you improve the program.

In early 2014 I decided to start learning a programming language that can make my daily work easier and also boost my networking career. This is when I discovered that Python, being a great language for beginners, can help me write some scripts that connect to network devices and perform various tasks I was doing manually, thus saving a lot of time. Also, working as a tester, I used Python to automate a lot of network tests, about 250, in a short period of time, again reducing my workload.
For all the above reasons and because there is a lot of Python material out there on the Internet that may seem discouraging for you as a beginner, I decided to build courses that take you from zero programming knowledge to advanced topics, all in a hands-on fashion.
===
In March 2015 I started working on my first course, “Python Network Programming – Part 1: Build 7 Python Apps”, without really knowing what is online education all about and with no prior teaching experience, either online or offline. I just wanted to try it for some reason, despite a lot of mental obstacles, a full time job and zero experience in teaching people.
I worked a lot on this first course, with countless hours of researching, recording and editing, but there was something that kept me going further. In May 2015 my course was approved by Udemy and was an instant success, despite my low expectations. Gradually, the course became a bestseller on other e-learning platforms, as well. One example I’m very proud of is the GNS3 Academy.
In April 2016, I finished working on Part 2 of the Python Network Programming series, called “Multivendor Environment”, after about three months of researching, testing, summarizing, simplifying, recording, editing and structuring the course content.
Finally, in September 2016, I released Part 3 of this amazing course series, called “Python Network Programming – Part 3: Scapy & Security Tools”, which in my opinion is very interesting and exciting for anyone wanting to enter the world of network security in a 100% hands-on fashion.
I am really putting a lot of energy and effort into each of my courses and I am always trying (and succeeding) to pay special attention to the smallest details and provide a lot of value to my students.
I really think my courses will get better and better, both by learning from my mistakes and carefully listening to the feedback I get from my students.

So, check out my courses and stay tuned for more!
