NAPALM is 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 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.
