Description
"Network Infrastructure Automation with Ansible: Cisco GNS3 Part 3" is an advanced course designed to equip participants with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in network automation utilizing Ansible within a Cisco networking environment simulated on GNS3. The course delves deep into Ansible, a powerful automation tool widely adopted in the industry, providing an in-depth understanding of its architecture, components, and capabilities. Participants will learn to automate various aspects of Cisco network infrastructure, leveraging Ansible playbooks to streamline configuration, provisioning, and management tasks across multiple devices. Special focus is placed on Cisco network automation, covering topics such as inventory management, module development, and playbook orchestration tailored specifically for Cisco devices. Moreover, the course extensively covers the configuration of Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) on Cisco switches, elucidating the principles, operation, and best practices for implementing and optimizing these crucial protocols within a network infrastructure. Through hands-on labs and real-world scenarios, participants will gain practical experience in designing, deploying, and troubleshooting STP and RSTP configurations on Cisco switches, ensuring network stability, redundancy, and resilience. By the end of the course, participants will emerge proficient in leveraging Ansible for network automation tasks within a Cisco environment, adept at configuring and optimizing STP and RSTP protocols, and equipped with the skills necessary to enhance operational efficiency and scalability in modern network infrastructures.
