Cisco Nexus Dashboard (ND) is the network management platform for all NX-OS-enabled deployments. In this session, we will cover how Ansible and ND can be used to provide various automation and orchestration capabilities to operate your datacenter. We will walk through the process of getting started and installing the Ansible Network as Code (NaC) collection, and then explore the different Ansible capabilities that are available in the NaC collection to help manage your VXLAN EVPN fabric. Next, we will walk you through the IaC (Infrastructure as Code) journey by using GitLab to fully automate the network with a CI/CD pipeline.
