• How do we authenticate to vManage? I don’t suppose the API is unprotected for anyone to just
send API calls as they please, but the docs for the reboot API did not mention any authentication at
all.
• This devideid in the template – I don’t know what value to put there
• Why is the ‘deviceIP’ pair enclosed in the square [] brakets? They seems to simply double the
curly [] brackets which I see point for
Thanks.

b) Execute the loginAPI0 only once and reuse the session for multiple API calls.
c) Use the put0 method instead of post0 to pass the reboot API call.
d) Combine device IP/ID pairs into a list and pass them all in a single API call.
e) Refer to the vManage by its DNS FQDN instead of its IP address.

Hi,
Thanks a lot! It worked!
I have one more question if you don’t mind. I’ve been looking at the performance of my script, and
to stand the API calls to reload 2 vEdges, it takes the script around 2 seconds to complete. I played
around with the script, adding more vEdge IPs and IDs to find out how the amount of vEdge plays
a role in the script execution time, and it seems that sending a reload request for any single vEdge
takes about 1 second, the time growing linearly with the number of vEdge to reload. That feels way
too long to be honest. Something’s wrong here that’s delaying the run of my script, but I cannot find
out what. Can you have a look at it? Oh, I’ve omitted the body of the loginAPI() function to keep
the below output short.
