Arista-Switch-Client
Quick python object to send commands to Arista switches.
Sends commands via Arista's EAPI using jsonrpclib or via SSH using netmiko
Switch.send_commands_via_eapi(cmds) uses the jsonrpclib Server object to execute commands on a switch
Switch.send_commands_via_netmiko(cmds) uses the netmiko python library to execute commands on a switch
Switch.send_commands(cmds, method=str) will by default use eapi (method="eapi") to send commands but can use ssh if you specify "ssh" in the method variable.
