SDK Network Objects
This document lists all network-related configuration object classes provided by the Python SDK (scm.config.network) and the standard methods you can use to perform Create, Read, Update and Delete (CRUD) operations.
As with deployment and object classes, every class exposes a consistent interface.
Tip After making changes use
commit()and track the resulting job withget_job_status()/list_jobs().
Quick-reference table
| Object | SDK Class | Description | Create | Read | Update | Delete | Commit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| IKE Crypto Profile | scm.config.network.IKECryptoProfile | Manage IKE Crypto Profile objects | create() | get(), fetch(), list() | update() | delete() | commit() |
| IKE Gateway | scm.config.network.IKEGateway | Manage IKE Gateway objects | create() | get(), fetch(), list() | update() | delete() | commit() |
| IPsec Crypto Profile | scm.config.network.IPsecCryptoProfile | Manage IPsec Crypto Profile objects | create() | get(), fetch(), list() | update() | delete() | commit() |
| NAT Rule | scm.config.network.NatRule | Manage NAT Rule objects | create() | get(), fetch(), list() | update() | delete() | commit() |
| Security Zone | scm.config.network.SecurityZone | Manage Security Zone objects | create() | get(), fetch(), list() | update() | delete() | commit() |
Usage pattern
from scm.config.network import SecurityZone # choose the class you need
# Create
resp = SecurityZone.create(name="Trust", type="layer3", subnets=["10.0.0.0/24"])
SecurityZone.commit()
# Read
zone = SecurityZone.get(resp.id)
zones = SecurityZone.list(page_size=50)
# Update
SecurityZone.update(resp.id, description="Updated description")
SecurityZone.commit()
# Delete
SecurityZone.delete(resp.id)
SecurityZone.commit()
Monitoring jobs
status = SecurityZone.get_job_status(job_id)
all_jobs = SecurityZone.list_jobs(limit=10)
Object details
IKE Crypto Profile (IKECryptoProfile)
Define phase-1 encryption / hashing parameters.
IKE Gateway (IKEGateway)
Configure IKE gateway peers and authentication.
IPsec Crypto Profile (IPsecCryptoProfile)
Define phase-2 (IPsec) encryption / hashing parameters.
NAT Rule (NatRule)
Layer-3 NAT rules for traffic translation.
Security Zone (SecurityZone)
Logical zones used in security policy.
Related Pydantic data-models
For each class there are corresponding models in scm.models.network.* (e.g. SecurityZoneCreateModel, IKEGatewayModel, …) that validate inputs and SDK responses.
