+Napalm
+======
+
+VyOS supports some napalm_ functions for configuration and op-mode.
+It requires more tests.
+
+Install ``napalm-vyos`` module
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+  apt install python3-pip
+  pip3 install napalm
+  pip3 install napalm-vyos
+
+
+Op-mode
+-------
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+  #!/usr/bin/env python3
+
+  import json
+  from napalm import get_network_driver
+
+  driver = get_network_driver('vyos')
+
+  vyos_router = driver(
+      hostname="192.0.2.1",
+      username="vyos",
+      password="vyospass",
+      optional_args={"port": 22},
+  )
+
+  vyos_router.open()
+  output = vyos_router.get_facts()
+  print(json.dumps(output, indent=4))
+
+  output = vyos_router.get_arp_table()
+  print(json.dumps(output, indent=4))
+
+  vyos_router.close()
+
+Output op-mode

+
+Configuration
+-------------
+
+We need 2 files, commands.conf and script itself.
+
+Content of commands.conf
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+  set service ssh disable-host-validation
+  set service ssh port '2222'
+  set system name-server '192.0.2.8'
+  set system name-server '203.0.113.8'
+  set interfaces ethernet eth1 description 'FOO'
+
+Script vyos-napalm.py
+
+.. code-block:: none
