Remotely configure several USG devices

arukashi · September 2021

Hello!

I have about fifty Zyxel USG devices which configuration must be updated. It is hard to manually logging in each device to do the same thing, so i want to pass script with instructions over SSH. Is there some way to import ssh key to USG devices so i don't have to type password every time script connects to USG?

It's unable to import ssh key into USG. You can use python netmiko module to do something automatically for network device configuration.

Sad to know it.

Well, already did it with netmiko using cisco_ios device_type. Here what its like, hope it helps anyone

Hi @arukashi,
Maybe Nebula solution can meet your requirement if you just want to configuration UTM service related for all sites. We have Security sync profile to apply UTM to all devices from Organization-wide.
