Configuration Management
Golden Rule
NEVER apply configuration without first capturing a baseline. If the change goes wrong, you need to know what to roll back to.
Change Workflow
Phase 1: Pre-Change Baseline
Capture the current state of everything the change might affect.
1A: Save Running Configuration
PYATS_TESTBED_PATH=$PYATS_TESTBED_PATH python3 $MCP_CALL "python3 -u $PYATS_MCP_SCRIPT" pyats_show_running_config '{"device_name":"R1"}'
Store this output — it is the rollback reference.
