Welcome to the Multi Vendor Ansible® Network Automation Workshop! In this session, attendees will automate real world network use cases using Ansible automation. The hands-on portion is multi-vendor (Cisco, Juniper, and Arista). In addition to automating a multi-vendor lab environment; we will discuss best practices for using Ansible to deploy various use cases into production at scale. This workshop will also explain how to automate common operational tasks and troubleshoot network related issues.
Technical prerequisites:
A web browser and access to https is required to complete the labs. Please note, some corporate VPNs or proxy settings might block access to our lab pod environment. Worst case, If you can’t connect, we’ll demo the solution on the screen. For the best experience, It’s recommended to use two monitors if possible.
Knowledge prerequisites:
This work assumes a few things from the student of the workshop, such as:
Time: 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM (GMT-04:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)
