The Ansible® Network Automation workshop is an abbreviated version of our two-day intermediate (201) workshop. This one-day version is condensed but provides a full day of the key hands-on exercises covering Ansible Automation Platform and routers and switches. The first part of the day is focused on learning techniques and best practices for developing  playbooks in YAML. The initial goal is to become familiar with the Ansible Navigator and its ability to automate configuration tasks for multi-vendor network devices. For the second half of the day, we will pivot to the Ansible Automation Platform. The attendees will progress from the skills gleaned earlier with the Ansible Navigator to applying those skills to immersive exercises using the Ansible Automation Platform. The second half of the workshop is designed to bring network use cases to life with real world challenges. The Ansible Automation Platform provides self service and orchestration capabilities to  manage infrastructure as code in a secure and reliable way. We will also demo the art of the possible with the new Event Driven Ansible for Networks!

Who is this workshop best for?

This workshop is an intermediate course for those familiar with network automation and writing Ansible Playbooks for Networks. This workshop covers familiar use cases and skills needed for network engineers or those interested in network automation. This workshop builds on top of the skill set targeted and achieved by attendees of the Network Automation (101) workshop for the beginner.
