This video explains basic concepts of Ansible for Network Automation.
This video will be helpful for Network Engineers, it explains from the step how to install ansible in Linux. Basic concepts of ansible.cfg file and hosts file. How to use the module and execute tasks from terminal
How to initiate connection to Cisco device and get the facts.
Ansible is an automation tool. Using this you will be able to manage the configurations ,states or provisioning of the devices.
Ansible modules support a wide range of vendors.
Using ansible you would be able to manage different types of environments such as DevOps environment, Developer and Network Engineers environment
Typically it communicates to devices using SSH or HTTPS
In case of Networkdevices it uses:
SSH, Netconf protocol, API’s using HTTP or HTTPS
It supports Cisco, Arista, Juniper etc
In ansible there are concepts such as :
Inventory: It contains list of managed devices.
Tasks: are Actions what ansible performs .
Playbook: you can create, your own list of tasks that is called playbook. You can run multiple tasks from SIngle playbook.
Modules: Depends on type of task there are modules, the primary module what we are going to look is Network module
apt -get install ansible
Ansible –version
Config file
Host file:
How to configure a device:
ansible all -i 10.10.10.10, -c network_cli -u admin -k -m ios_facts -e ansible_network_os=ios
ansible all -i D1,D1, -c network_cli -u admin -k -m ios_facts -e ansible_network_os=ios
