v2.0.8

Release Date

2026-04-21

Summary

v2.0.8 is a bug-fix and UX release. It corrects four silent data-collection failures in the Arista EOS live topology collection pipeline and introduces a grouped-by-domain intent list view that organises all intents into collapsible domain panels for easier at-a-glance navigation.

Added

  • Grouped intent view — a new /plugins/intent-networking/intents/grouped/ page groups all intents into collapsible domain panels (Layer 2, Layer 3, MPLS/SP, Data Centre, Security, WAN/SD-WAN, Wireless, Cloud, QoS, Multicast, Management, Reachability, Service). Each domain panel is colour-coded with a Material Design icon and shows a condensed table of intent ID, type, tenant, status, approval state, and deployed date. A "Group by Domain" button is added to the standard intent list view; active filter querystrings are preserved when switching between views.

Fixed

  • Arista ARP table always empty — the ntc-templates library ships no arista_eos_show_arp.textfsm template, so netmiko_send_command returned the raw command output as a plain string instead of a parsed list. The collection loop discarded any non-list result, resulting in an empty ARP panel on the topology device page. Fixed by preserving raw string output and adding a regex-based line parser in _normalise_arp() that extracts IP, age, MAC and interface columns from the plain text.

  • VRF names missing for Arista — _normalise_vrfs() looked for dictionary key name to populate the VRF name field, but the arista_eos_show_vrf.textfsm template emits vrf. All VRF rows were normalised to an empty string. Fixed by adding or row.get("vrf") as a fallback.

  • BGP neighbor IP and AS number missing for Arista — _normalise_bgp() used bgp_neighbor and neighbor_as / remote_as as dictionary keys. The Arista TextFSM template emits bgp_neigh and neigh_as respectively. All BGP panel rows appeared blank. Fixed by adding or row.get("bgp_neigh") and or row.get("neigh_as") fallbacks.

  • Route prefix mask and next-hop missing for Arista — the arista_eos_show_ip_route.textfsm template emits prefix_length (not mask) and declares NEXT_HOP and INTERFACE as List values (Python lists, not strings). _normalise_routes() looked for a mask key (found nothing) and placed the list object directly into nexthop and interface fields, producing [...] strings in the UI. Fixed by adding or row.get("prefix_length") for the mask and joining list values with ", " in both nexthop and interface.

  • Collection task silently skipped after any task failure — nornir.run() calls in _collect_live_data() were missing on_failed=True, which causes Nornir to skip subsequent tasks on a host that was marked failed by a prior task. Added on_failed=True to the collection loop to ensure all commands are attempted independently.
