G'Day all,

I'm trying to setup a salt-proxy system to manage a CISCO network switch (Nexus 9000) in a test lab before scaling up into the business. The minion and master are on the same VM RHEL 9.7 and the salt version is 3006.20 (soon to be .24)

I appear to have a working salt-proxy but if I understand correctly, and using the Napalm CLI via python, I can communicate to the switch. I now need the pillar file to have the Interfaces configured in it to setup and control each interface on the switch.

However, I cannot find any examples of how this is done.. anywhere.

Does anyone control the actual port configurations etc, of switches using the pillar files?
