1. On your master, install the netdev_stdlib_eos module: puppet module install aristanetworks-netdev_stdlib_eos

   This module contains the types and providers needed to run the Puppet agent on the network switch.

2. Install the agent on the network device.
   1. Access your network device as an admin user, or as a user with access to Privileged EXEC mode.
   2. Enable Privileged EXEC mode: enable
   3. On the EOS download page, locate the most recent .swix package for the agent and copy it: copy http://downloads.puppetlabs.com/eos/4/PC1/i386/puppet-agent-<VERSION NUMBER>.eos4.i386.swix extension:
      Note: If you’re unable to access the Internet from your EOS instance, download the agent package and transfer it to your instance.
   4. Install the agent on the network device: extension puppet-agent-<VERSION NUMBER>-eos-4-i386.swix
   5. Log out and log back into the network device as root.
   6. Set Puppet to run as the root user and group:

      /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet config --confdir /persist/sys/etc/puppetlabs/puppet set user root
      /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet config --confdir /persist/sys/etc/puppetlabs/puppet set group root

   7. Configure the agent to connect to your master: puppet config set server <PUPPET MASTER FQDN>
   8. Connect the agent to the master and create a certificate signing request for the new agent: puppet agent --test
3. On your master, sign the cert for the network device: puppet cert sign <NETWORK DEVICE FQDN>
4. On the network device, run Puppet: puppet agent -t

   no extension puppet-enterprise-<VERSION NUMBER>-eos-4-i386.swix
   delete extension:puppet-enterprise-<VERSION NUMBER>-eos-4-i386.swix

4. Delete the SSL keys from the EOS instance: bash sudo rm -rf /persist/sys/etc/puppetlabs/
5. On your master, revoke the cert for the agent on the network device instance: puppet cert clean <EOS INSTANCE FQDN>

   Notice: Revoked certificate with serial 10

The puppet-ciscopuppet module contains the types and providers needed to configure Cisco NX-OS network switches.

1. On your master, install the puppetlabs-ciscopuppet module: puppet module install puppetlabs-ciscopuppet
2. From the network device, start a root bash or guest shell. For a bash install, enable networking:

   
                        run bash
   sudo ip netns exec management bash

   • Guest

     sudo su -
     yum install http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-pc1-el-7.noarch.rpm

4. Install the agent: yum install puppet-agent

   The agent is installed in /opt/puppetlabs.

5. Add the bin and lib paths to your login shell's PATH: export PATH=$PATH:/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin:/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib

The puppet-ciscopuppet module contains the types and providers needed to configure Cisco IOS-XR network switches.

1. On your master, install the puppetlabs-ciscopuppet module: puppet module install puppetlabs-ciscopuppet
2. From the network device, start a root Bash shell with networking enabled:

   run bash
   sudo ip netns exec management bash

3. Install the Puppet Collections PC1 repository package:

   bash-4.2# yum install http://yum.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs-release-pc1-cisco-wrlinux-7.noarch.rpm

4. Install the agent: yum install puppet-agent

   The agent is installed in /opt/puppetlabs.

5. Add the bin and lib paths to your login shell's PATH: export PATH=$PATH:/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin:/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib

The commands to uninstall NX-OS and IOS-XR Cisco agents are the same for both Bash and guest shell environments.

1. Remove the agent:

   sudo su -
   yum remove puppet-agent

2. Remove the Puppet Collections PC1 repository package package:

   yum remove puppetlabs-release-pc1

1. From the network switch, retrieve the agent package: wget http://pm.puppetlabs.com/puppet-agent/2017.3.10/5.3.8/repos/deb/cumulus/PC1/puppet-agent_5.3.8-1cumulus_amd64.deb
2. Install the agent package: sudo dpkg -i puppet-agent_5.3.8-1cumulus_amd64.deb

6. Connect the agent to the master and create a certificate signing request for the new agent: sudo /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet agent -t
7. On your master, sign the cert for the network device: puppet cert sign <NETWORK DEVICE FQDN>
8. On the network device, run Puppet: sudo /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet agent -t
