I am attempting to use napalm to push configs to Cisco devices. When I do a compare_config, it is only showing me the additions, not the config which is being removed. From the examples I have seen, this should be included. Am I doing something wrong?
Here is my config:
from napalm import get_network_driver
driver = get_network_driver('ios')
device = driver('hostname', 'username', 'password')
device.open()
print(device.get_config()['running'])
device.load_merge_candidate(config='hostname test\n end\n')
print(device.compare_config())
I get this output:
>>> print(device.compare_config())
+hostname test
The output I am expecting is this:
>>> print(device.compare_config())
+hostname test
-hostname oldhostname
Why is it not showing the removed config?
