Hello, @walidamer711 ! My library doesn't support textfsm, but it's interesting. What do you expect from using this args "use_textfsm=True"?

[walidamer711]

Hello, In reference to the below link, netmiko now support passing this parameter "use_textfsm=True" along with send_command() in order to return structured data parsed with ready textfsm templates created in ntc-templates. So it is all about getting structured data.

if you can add this to your library, that will be great. Thanks

Oh, it's a great idea! I will realize it in the next release!
