Create nso authgroup using maagic & maapi

[ifoughal]

Hello, 

I'm currently attempting to create an Authgroup using maagic & maapi, I've been able to update it without any issues using the following nested attributes:

root.devices.authgroups.group["test"].default_map.remote_password

Although, the group has to exist prior, thus far I've only been able to update it after creating manually through the CLI, but what I need is to be able to create it programatically.

The nested objects themselves don't seem to contain any create method (such as the devices.device object).

Any ideas ?

Hello,

Here a working example

import ncs       
with ncs.maapi.Maapi() as m:
	with ncs.maapi.Session(m, 'admin', 'test_context'):
		with m.start_write_trans() as trans:
			root = ncs.maagic.get_root(trans)
			authgroup = root.devices.authgroups.group.create("test-auth")
			authgroup.default_map.create()
			authgroup.default_map.remote_name="admin"
			authgroup.default_map.remote_password="cisco"
			trans.apply()

Before creating the authgroup using python 

admin@ncs# show running-config devices authgroups group test-auth
--------------------------------------------------------^
syntax error: element does not exist

After creating the authgroup

admin@ncs# show running-config devices authgroups group test-auth
devices authgroups group test-auth
 default-map remote-name admin
 default-map remote-password $9$/2qQuqwlb9Y7by5opJuC/8mssOctVdvh5DBr0MdyM6Q=

You can use ncs_pycli that might help you in the future .
