Environment

  • Python version: python --version
    Python 2.7.5
    python3 --version
    Python 3.4.8
  • NetBox version: (v2.3.3)

I've try to use NAPALM but can't do that, because "Status", "LLDP Neighbors" and "Configuration"tabs in particular device are disabled. I've assign primary ipv4 address for that device and added napalm username and password to configuration.py and reload server, but nothing changes.

The tabs are typically disabled because some requirement is missing. Have you made sure to set the correct platform on the device, and set the NAPALM driver for that platform?

I think I should select appropriate NAPALM driver, but how can I determine what driver should I select?
What should I type in NAPALM Driver section for IOS devices? I tried this - "napalm.ios.ios.IOSDriver" - but NetBox show me javascript message with server error title.

>>> from napalm import get_network_driver
>>> get_network_driver('ios')
<class 'napalm.ios.ios.IOSDriver'>

Under Platforms you can assign NAPLAM driver "ios" or "junos" then assign a platform to a device.

you have to do that: Under Platforms you can assign NAPLAM driver "ios" or "junos"
and make sure ssh connection from netbox server to your devices is ok.

Hovering the mouse pointer over the tab will explain why it is disabled.

I am having the same issue as fomik2
