Sure..

This code shows an example of claiming a device based on IP-Address CDP info.

You probably want to move to site-based provisioning if possible.
https://blogs.cisco.com/developer/dna-center-pnp-5

and there is code (for per-provisioned). That is the same as unclaimed.

Sorry.. missed the first code link (it is in the blog)
https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/DNAC-onboarding-tools/tree/master/PnPNoSerialClaim

We also have a new python SDK... https://blogs.cisco.com/developer/using-cisco-dna-center-sdk

Hi Adam,

Thanks for your feedback!

I've been looking at all this information and what we need is a PnPNoSerialClaim but using a template not a static config file.

I have a small flow chart about how the script was working with APIC-EM, where we used a template from which we created a template-config. But in DNAC I can't find a template to start from...

How should we handle this?

Regards,

Sven

Hi!

I cannot create Anycast Gateways in DNA Center 2.3.3.5 via API calls if there is already another Anycast Gateway with the same VLAN name in a different Fabric Site. Works in GUI, fails via API.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Creating the first Anycast Gateway succeeds
