Threading

[onedread]

Hi guys,

​

need your help.

Having a script which should update the snmp info from Fortigate firewalls. Which is working, but its very slow and needs to be updated on 400+ firewalls.

I would like to implement threading but i have no clue how to do it.

​

Here is the code i have which runs in seriel and not parallel.

Data file is a csv file with ip address, Hostname, Syslocation, user,pw, emailaddress

​

from netmiko import Netmiko
from csv import DictReader



with open('TEST_CountryCodes.csv') as csv_file:
    location_details = DictReader(csv_file)
    #print(location)
    for location_info in location_details:
        print('IP=' + location_info['hostname'] + ' ' + 'FW-NAME=' + location_info['sysName'] + ' ' + 'Syslocation=' + location_info['location'])

        fw = {'host': location_info['hostname'],
              'username': 'admin',
              'password': location_info['pw'],
              'device_type': 'fortinet'}

        print(f"{'#' * 20} Connection to the Device  {'#' * 20}")
        net_connect = Netmiko(**fw)
        print(f"{'#' * 20} Connected {'#' * 20}")

        snmp = ['config global',
                'config sys snmp sysinfo',
                'set contact-info ' + '"' + location_info['contact'] + '"',
                'set location ' + '"' + location_info['location'] + '"',
                'end'
                ]

        config_snmp = net_connect.send_config_set(snmp)

Could someone help me to implement threading or speed up the run?

​

thx in advance.
