● A joint venture of Kirk Byers and Flock9
Enterprise support and AI guardrails for Netmiko.
Netmiko runs network automation at organizations worldwide. Netmiko Enterprise adds the commercial support that teams need today; Netmiko Guardian adds the AI safeguards that networks require tomorrow.
What Netmiko Enterprise offers
Enterprise Support
Commercial support, SLAs and expertise for teams running Netmiko.
Netmiko Guardian
The controlled layer between AI clients and your network.
Netmiko Open Source
The MIT-licensed library. Free, and staying that way.
“The Netmiko open-source library itself will largely be unchanged by all of this. If anything, I am hoping for an improved release cadence, faster issue resolution, and a quicker response on pull requests.”
Kirk Byers · creator and maintainer of Netmiko
● The foundation
Who doesn’t use Netmiko?
Netmiko is the open-source Python library behind network automation at enterprises worldwide. Maintained since 2014, quietly embedded in the scripts, pipelines and tools your team runs every day. It never needed a purchase order, so it never showed up on your radar.
150+
Platforms supported
Across every major vendor, and most of the smaller ones.
28M+
Downloads, and counting
Installed in CI/CD pipelines and automation worldwide.
4.3K
GitHub stars
Plus 1.4K forks. A community that builds on it.
2014
Maintained since
MIT licensed, with regular releases ever since.
Vendor coverage includes Cisco, Arista, Juniper, Nokia, Huawei, HPE, Palo Alto, Fortinet, Mikrotik, Dell, Extreme and Ubiquiti, among many others. Netmiko also sits underneath frameworks like Nornir, so many teams rely on it without ever calling it by name.
● Two ways to work with us
Support you can buy today. Guardrails for what comes next.
Both are built on the same open-source foundation, and you can start with either one.
Netmiko Enterprise Support

Netmiko Guardian
The controlled layer between AI clients and your network. Guardian manages access, credentials, connections, and logs AI requests and network actions.

- Access control, credentials and inventory
- Full audit trail of requests and actions
- Works with the AI client of your choice
● Engineers talking to engineers
Let’s talk about your network.
Whether you need support on the Netmiko you already run, or you are working out how AI should (and should not) interact with your network, we are happy to think it through with you.
