Programming for Network Engineers | PRNE Learning Path
You need to build Python skills before you can become a network automation guru. The Programming for Network Engineers Learning Path will help you build a foundational knowledge of Python and its programmability uses in network engineering. As your skills grow, so does the complexity of the Learning Path content, until you have reached a basic proficiency level of knowledge.
You’ll learn:
- Why programming is a critical skill for network engineers.
- How programming fits into the network automation and programmability learning journey.
- How to create useful, practical scripts for retrieving data and configuring network devices.
- How to create, apply, and troubleshoot simple network automation scripts.
- Python programming via hands-on experience.
(Completing the PRNE Learning Path also means that you will be closer to earning the DevNet Associate certification, which covers API, data structures, and Python.)
