Aplicaciones de software educativos y empresarial: prototipo de software que facilite la automatización de tareas de recopilación, procesamiento y análisis de información de equipos de red utilizando Python Scripting en la empresa LIKATELEC.

Abstract

This Curricular Integration Paper proposes a software prototype that allows the company LIKATELEC to automate tasks such as: collection, processing, information analysis and presentation of technical documentation; which are executed during preventive maintenance of CISCO network equipment in their customers manually and repetitively using Python Scripting. Chapter 1 explores the details of Python Scripting and its application in network programmability in conjunction with the management of Cisco network equipment through the Command-Line Interface (CLI). Next, the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) methodology used throughout this work is detailed. Finally, the technologies, development environments and programming languages for the prototype implementation are explained. Chapter 2 shows the particularities of the construction of the desktop application oriented to the automation of network equipment maintenance tasks: the design decisions taken and the different development details made. Similarly, this chapter follows the stages defined by the ALM methodology, which are: Governance, Development and Operations. In the Governance stage, the main guidelines for the development of the desktop application are defined, on the other hand, in the Development stage, the development decisions taken are explored and, finally, in the Operations stage, the results obtained after the end of the prototype implementation stage are shown, which has been tested on a network simulation (by data confidentiality), replicating the total network design of a specific client of the LIKATELEC company.
