NX-API |
NX-API is an enhancement to the Cisco MDS 9000 Series CLI system. Cisco MDS 9000 NX-API is an RPC-style API, taking and executing CLI commands. Based on HTTP or HTTPS protocols as common to other Representational State Transfer (REST) API frameworks, it allows programmatic access to a Cisco MDS switch. NX-API provides the configuration and management capabilities of Cisco MDS NX-OS CLI with a modern web-based API, enabling users to control a Cisco MDS switch using a web browser. When coupled with a programming language like Python and the appropriate libraries, it facilitates storage networking automation. |
