### NAPALM Configuration
Since v2.1.0 NAPALM has been tightly integrated into NetBox.
NAPALM allows NetBox to fetch live data from devices and return it to a requester via its REST API.
To learn more about what NAPALM is and how it works, please see the documentation from the [libary itself][napalm-doc] or the documentation from [NetBox][netbox-napalm-doc] on how it is integrated.
To enable this functionality, simply complete the following lines in `netbox.env` (or appropriate secrets mechanism) :
* `NAPALM_USERNAME`: A common username that can be utilized for connecting to network devices in your environment.
* `NAPALM_PASSWORD`: The password to use in combintation with the username to connect to network devices.
* `NAPALM_TIMEOUT`: A value to use for when an attempt to connect to a device will timeout if no response has been recieved.
However, if you don't need this functionality, leave these blank.

However, if you have no need for this functionality, leaving them blank will not hinder the performance of NetBox at all.
