I have databases I want to automate some data pulls.
To access the databases I have to connect to separate VPNs.
I have the remote gateway, port, and credentials.
How can I use python to automate the connecting and disconnecting from different VPNs?

How do you connect and disconnect from the VPNs without Python? – mkrieger1 Jun 07 '23 at 20:50

@mkrieger1 I use a client installed on my laptop. So I have to login each time I want to run a script. I'd really prefer it be automated so I can schedule it without needing to login to each VPN. – David 54321 Jun 07 '23 at 20:54

Perhaps this then? https://stackoverflow.com/q/48754813/1256347 In general, could you please indicate what possible solution routes you've looked into already such that others don't suggest them? – Saaru Lindestøkke Jun 08 '23 at 10:07

@SaaruLindestøkke The solution you linked looks like it's using a linux system. I'm using a windows machine and using fortinet VPN. If that's useful. I have searched Stack Overflow and a general google search and haven't found a specific answer to this question. – David 54321 Jun 08 '23 at 13:38

Those are definitely important details to [edit] into your question. Also please include *what* you've searched for on Google and Stack Overflow and what you found that was not helpful, it helps others understand what direction you're thinking in. – Saaru Lindestøkke Jun 08 '23 at 16:15
