Course Overview
In this training package you will learn how to setup Ansible for Network Automation (NetDevOps) step by step. Ansible is a type of Software Defined Network (SDN) solution that provide configuration management for a network (or server) infrastructure. Using Ansible for Network Automation, we can push configuration commands for switching, routing, and many other services to network devices from a centralized controller.
In this course, we will discuss the general concepts and components of Ansible. We will talk about our topology which will consist of Cisco IOS and Nexus-OS network devices to utilize the Cisco configuration modules supported with Ansible. We will show you how to install Ansible on a Linux distribution and talk about the the critical files used such as host variables to playbook files. The biggest aspect that we will teach you in this course is setting up Ansible for Network Automation to dynamically build the configuration.
These will be one of the many things we will teach you in this course. We will be doing network configuration, but most of all teaching you how to do Network DevOps using Ansible to advance your skills as a network engineer.
