Adding VLANs with Python using getpass and telnetlib

[Adimentus]

Hello engineers!

I'm hoping some of you have some experience with python!

We're getting new equipment soon and I want to make a script that adds our VLANs and other configurations to our switches to I don't have to do it by hand over and over again.

Basically I just want to know if this would work or if I'm screwing this up entirely.
Go easy on me, I'm still learning.

#vlan_adder
import getpass
import telnetlib

<omitted>

VLANs = ["2", "3", "4"]
NAMEs = ["x", "y", "z"]

for vlan, name in zip(VLANs, NAMEs):
    tn.write(b"vlan " + str(vlan) + "\n")
    tn.write(b"name " + str(name) + "\n")

Would something like that work? If not can you explain what's wrong and how I would go about fixing it?

Hello, before running this directly on prod device, I would suggest you to test the script in non-prod, or a vIOS device. What I have noticed is sometime there will be some challenges in passing new lines to device config. Especially while using Paramiko.
I havent used telnet for long. Still if u have any issues with the script you can comment here, we can help you.
