This project presents the design and implementation of a web-based network management system built
using the Django framework. The system allows users to manage SR Linux devices hosted within a
Containerlab environment through a browser-based interface. Core functionalities include adding and
deleting devices, retrieving device uptime, and executing remote commands via SSH using the Netmiko
library.
The backend is developed using Django’s MVT (Model-View-Template) architecture and interacts with a
database to store and retrieve device information. The frontend is built with Django templates and standard
HTML and provides a simple and user-friendly experience. Device communication is handled securely over
SSH, enabling real-time retrieval of operational data from SR Linux devices.
Modular and scalable, the system design facilitates simple expansion to accommodate extra device kinds or
sophisticated monitoring capabilities. Moreover, the design is API-ready, which offers future assistance for
external integrations or transfer to current front-end systems. This initiative shows how lightweight, practical
network management systems appropriate for educational or experimental settings may be created using
open-source technologies extensively.
