Preface

This guide describes how to develop scripts to implement device-specific network configuration.

The CDK enables system developers to develop Python scripts that define specific network configuration. These scripts can then be applied directly to network devices via Oracle Communications IP Service Activator's fully-featured device drivers (Alcatel, Cisco, Juniper M-series, and Riverstone) or specific script drivers (such as the CatOS script driver).

Audience

This guide is intended for system developers who want to develop scripts to implement device-specific network configuration, and for network operations managers who use the scripts.

Before reading this guide, you should have familiarity with IP Service Activator and its QoS, access control, and VPN provisioning features.

You should also have knowledge of the Python programming language, as this guide does not provide details of the language.
