AOS-CX REST API

The AOS-CX REST API runs on-box on every AOS-CX switch (CX 6000/8000/9000/10000 series) and exposes the full switch configuration and state surface — system, VRFs, VLANs, interfaces, LAGs, OSPF, BGP, EVPN, VSF, VSX, ACLs, QoS — backed by a YANG model. It is the foundation for the pyaoscx Python SDK, the aoscxgo Go client, the AOS-CX Ansible collection, and the AOS-CX Terraform provider.
