This  demonstrates the use of Python programming to provision a MPLS L3VPN on a service Provider Edge (PE) router using REST API. This example uses Cisco CSR1000v (IOS-XE) routers as PE routers.
- REST API management access to CSR1000v routers (pleae refer to the References at the end of this document).
- Python (Version 2.x or 3.x) and "Requests" Python library installed on the computer used for configuring the routers.
- Some basic knowledge Python programming.
