This program will run though your Cisco gear, run a bunch of commands on the IP addresses in IPs.txt, and put data from those commands into a database. It will also find other devices in your network to pull data from and stick into the database, and repeat till it runs out of devices to hit.
You will need the textfsm files from https://github.com/networktocode/ntc-templates and put the ntc-templates-master folder in the same folder as everything else.
The IPs.txt file is where the crawler will start looking.
To update the network username/password go into explore_network.py and edit the get_username_password function
All the examples assume your using a windows docker build and have your files in d:/network_crawler/network_to_db
When I do this "//d/network_crawler/network_to_db:/network_crawler" I am just mapping my d:/network_crawler/network_to_db to the linux /network_crawler. All my files are in d:/network_crawler/network_to_db
To update the database location/name go into db_work and update there:
db_location is the MySQL server
db_user is the user
db_password is the database password
perm_db is the perminate database
temp_db is the temp database
From main docker:
Build Images:
docker build -t network_crawler_build_perm_db:latest -f ./Dockerfile-Build-perm-db .
docker build -t network_crawler:latest -f ./Dockerfile-Explore-network .
docker build -t network_crawler_build_reports:latest -f ./Dockerfile-Build-reports .
Build the database (only the 1st time this is run)
docker container run -v //d/network_crawler:/network_crawler network_crawler_build_perm_db
Crawl the network:
docker container run -v //d/network_crawler:/network_crawler network_crawler
Build Reports:
docker container run -v //d/network_crawler:/network_crawler network_crawler_build_reports

-----------------
Build a temporary MySQL server for demo purposes (assuming the server is at 192.168.0.183)
Run mysql container on server
docker run --detach --name=test-mysql --env="MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=password" --publish 3306:3306 mysql
Connect to server from linux and create the DB
mysql -u root -p -h 192.168.0.183
create database network_data_db;
create database temp_db;
