Enables a user to rename address objects in bulk by comparing a csv file containing new and old object names against the current set of address objects on a firewall or Panorama device group
- Checks for duplicate objects, and renames accordingly
- Checks new object names for compliance with PAN naming convention
- Run script against multiple device groups, with multiple lists
- Script is multithreaded, so it runs quickly
- Option to run the script in practice mode with --dry-run arg
rename-addr-objects.py <user-provided-list.csv> [--dry-run]
CSV list should be in the following format:
NEW_address1,OLD_address1
NEW_address2,OLD_address2
NEW_address3,OLD_address3
NEW_network1,OLD_network1
NEW_network2,OLD_network2
This script pushes an api call for each individual object to be renamed. If you are renaminig a lot of objects at once, this could have an impact on the management plane of your device.
Currently there is no support for objects that are overriding parent device group objects. This will be fixed once a bug is fixed on the upstream pandevice framework
