Hey everyone how's it going!

Made a video on how you can connect to hosts and run commands using the SSH module Paramiko.

As a DevOps/Network Engineer, I find this module very powerful. I'm able to pull information and send commands to the infrastructure I manage.

I hope there are some Sysadmins out there that will find this useful!

As a wireless network engineer,

I highly recommend netmiko. It's built in top of paramiko.

Good if you work only on respected operating systems that have POSIX support. When writing multi platform code I found paramiko to be very useful (even if a bit low-level in few places)
