Question

Create new custom device attribute using Python (not API)

Userlevel 1

Good Day,

Netbrain Version 10.0

How can I create a custom device Attribute using Python, NOT using the API method?

Documentation shows how to do it using APIs, but not using the “non-API” method.

I know the following Python methods/functions exist:

SetDeviceProperty and GetProperty:

Example:

SetDeviceProperty("is_external_router", $_device.GetProperty("name"), "Yes, External Router")

AddMessage($_device.GetProperty("is_external_router"))

Of course, it’s not going to work (prints “None”) without first creating the new Attribute.

As stated, I need to know what the function/method name is to create a custom attribute.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dave
