Switch management tool

[Moudar]

Hi!

I was looking for a tool that can be used to manage many switches at the same time. By manage i mean:

-having a list of all my switches in one place 

-the ability to login to cli using ssh without the need to write my login details

-take back ups of the running config, and much more

Prime can manage but it lack the ability to login med ssh! or do i miss something?

we dont have DNA yet, don't know if DNA have this ability 

We have used Winagents Hyperconf, and now we need to find something better and have maybe the same abilities or better!

Any suggestions?

I have been using AKIPS since 2018 and we have AKIPS, PI and DNAC running in parallel. 

AKIPS is bang-for-your-bucks.  Hands down.

Hello,

depending on whether your switches support RESTCONFIG, you could use that in combination with the POSTMAN GUI.

Is it possible to use Postman the same way as Hyperconf? I mean switch list and backups..?

We have many 9200 switches

Hello,

Postman is the front end GUI for RESTCONF. It let's you do device listings, backups, and much more...
