Quick ACL Entry Comparison Script
The ACL_compare function takes two lists of strings and compares the first to the second and returns a list comprising strings that are present in the first that are not in the second.
The listconvert function converts a file read into memory into a list of strings. Handy for when you use filenames as arguments when you run the script.
Essentially it’s all just string comparison really.
def ACL_compare(fwsm_ACL,asa_ACL):
comparison=[]
for line in fwsm_ACL:
if line in asa_ACL:
pass
else:
comparison.append(line)
return comparison
def listconvert(file):
newlist=file.readlines()
return newlist
