How to get information from the Netscaler using Python and Suds

[ Thanks to asanabria6910 for this link. ]

"Recently I just started to use the Citrix Netscalers again ( Load Balancers ). Being the person that I am, I wanted a way to grab the information using the SOAP API. Now Citrix has a ton of documentation for Perl/C/C# and Java ( None for Python ). SOAP client support has not been the best for Python, in my opinion.

"I know you have soappy/ZSI, which I have had issues with consuming Broken WSDL files ( Having to fix the Broken WSDL file manually, SUCKS!).

"Just 2 weeks ago, I encounterd SUDS. This module is by far, the best SOAP client for Python. There documentation is simple and straight to the point, with a bunch of nice samples to get you on your way"
