hpswitch is a Python module to allow interaction with HP Networking switches in a pythonic fashion.
It uses pySNMP to interact with the switch using the SNMPv2 protocol.
hpswitch also depends on the ipaddress module. The functionality of this module is outlined in PEP 3144. A reference implementation is provided by Google. If you don't care and you just want to get up and running quickly, the file to wget is http://hg.python.org/cpython/raw-file/tip/Lib/ipaddress.py.
Currently, only a very small subset of the functionality of the SNMP API is implemented, mostly related to dealing with IP addressing, VLANs and interfaces.
hpswitch should be compatible with the 3500, 3500yl, 5400zl, 6200yl, 6600 and 8200zl switch series. However, it has so far only been tested with a 5406zl switch. If you can confirm compatibility with other switch models, please let me know!
