1.2.0
^^^^^


New Features
************

* Adds a new config option, "ngs_switchport_mode" to the Dell
  PowerConnect driver.

* Add HPE device type to enable communication with the HPE 5900
  series switches that use comware5 netconf.

* Adds a new device driver, "netmiko_dell_powerconnect", for
  managing Dell PowerConnect switch devices.

* Adds a new driver, "netmiko_juniper", for Juniper Junos OS
  devices.

  The private configuration mode is used in order to provide a level
  of isolation between sessions, and to ensure that uncommitted
  changes are not left on the switch following a failure to commit the
  configuration.

  Configuration errors are handled by ensuring that the commit
  operation is successful.

  A retry mechanism is used to handle temporary failures due to
  multiple sessions attempting to lock the Junos OS configuration
  database concurrently.  The retry mechanism is configured via the
  configuration options "ngs_commit_interval" and
  "ngs_commit_timeout".


Known Issues
************

* Netmiko has not changed the device name for hp_comware to
  hpe_comware yet. See

  https://github.com/ktbyers/netmiko/blob/develop/netmiko/ssh_dispatc
  her.py

  Therefore, the device will fail to load as netmiko will only
  recognize "hp_comware". We'll need to alias "hpe_comware" with
  "hp_comware" till netmiko recognizes HPE.
