AI Agents: An Artificially Intelligent Network Engineer

🚀 AI Agents: Not Just the Future—They’re the Present! 🚀 I’m beyond excited to share something incredible—a fully functional AI Agent that operates a Cisco IOS XE router through natural language commands. This isn’t just a concept. It’s real, it’s working, and it’s built with only 425 lines of Python! 🤯 🛠️ Key Highlights: ✅ No pyATS job files. No hardcoded scripts. ✅ Decorated pyATS functions as tools for the AI Agent to use dynamically. ✅ Powered by Ollama and Command-R7B (local, private, free, and confidential). ✅ Directly manages network devices like a junior network engineer would—but faster and smarter. 🔍 What can it do? Interpret natural language commands. Execute real-time configurations on Cisco IOS XE routers. Provide instant, accurate insights—completely autonomously. Full configuration management ! 💡 Why this matters: AI Agents aren’t some distant future of 2025—they’re here, now. This is a real-world example of how AI can transform IT operations today, saving time, reducing human error, and empowering engineers to focus on strategic tasks. This isn’t a prototype. It’s a free, local, and confidential AI Agent ready to revolutionize how we interact with network infrastructure. Imagine scaling this across your entire network. The possibilities are endless. Oh and because it's using pyATS - it's very fast. This took seconds to perform even though I am constrained by my local GPU (and RTX 2060 in case you are wondering) Look at the logs - you can see the tail end of the pyATS job running and the "show ip interface brief GigabitEthernet1" command being parsed to JSON and then a final /api/generate call to give me the human answer ! 🔗 Curious about how this works or how to bring AI Agents into your operations?
