I am a CBT subscriber and watched lots of video from Keith. It's always been great experience and makes me to keep watching and learning. Now you gave me a great project to finally I can set up my home lab. Thank you, Keith!
What's great about these videos is Keith's amazing ability to **naturally emphasize** and break down important architectural parts of a system/application so newbies on a topic can quickly get over the hurdles. This is my go to channel when I say "time to get off my butt and watch what Keith is cookin'"!
Keith - thank you so much for putting together this for us! I've been so confused on the Ansible/Puppet/Chef and this was quite helpful. Would you do a video on Puppet & Chef too? I LOVE the TDW!
Great job sir. You explanation and demonstration of the basic fundamentals of Ansible was excellent. I just started a new Ansible lab in CML. Thank you for the help.
Thanks Keith. You're one of the great CCIE that is around. Thanks for the sharing and keep up the great work. If you have email please let me know.👍👍👍👍👍
thank you. I would like to know how we can do either a range of ip address or read from a .txt file of ip address and then save the information to excel spreadsheet.
One thing I've noticed about Ansible is things change very quickly. By the time I get to watch this video it's already out of date. I dug in a couple years ago, but found so many things didn't work and quickly let it go. TDW's are adding up lol
Hi Keith, This still seems rather complicated. Is there a popular GUI version that uses Ansible, Python Restconf and Yang to automate and if so why not just use that? It just feels like we are trying to write out math problems here instead of using a calculator
Thank you Wapdisw, here is the direct link for the exam blueprint, also called the "Exam Topics" for 200-301, the CCNA www.cisco.com/c/dam/en_us/training-events/le31/le46/cln/marketing/exam-topics/200-301-CCNA.pdf Happy studies.
Great tutorial Keith, but your instructions may not work for all environments. I spent about a week trying to get this scenario working (using latest version of Ubuntu 24.something....) There is a setting in the ansible.cfg file that will require attention for ssh onto Cisco IOS to authenticate successfully - to be specific, ansible will not attempt to use the username in the hosts file without it. The setting in question is: look_for_keys=False The setting can be found at the bottom of the ansible.cfg file if it is generated using the built in command to generate it (ansible-config init > /path/to/ansible.cfg) is used Not sure if this is something related to the latest version of Ubuntu or Python perhaps It appears the default behavior is to use key authentication and not try usernames and passwords without this setting in the config file. I would like to think my comment / findings will help your other viewers avoid hours of troubleshooting. Keep Up The Good Work.
TDW!! An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: OSError: out of pty devices fatal: [10.0.0.252]: FAILED! => {"msg": "Unexpected failure during module execution.", "stdout": ""} lol I am getting tired of reading Ansible docs. I really like Nornir it just works lol.

Hi Keith thanks for taking the time to share this its been a huge help towards learning the automation part of the CCNA.
Glad it was helpful!

Thank you for the request Chris. Chef and Puppet are both on my list.
Happy studies!

What's the name of the software you used in this video
Thank you for the question me mem. I used SecureCRT as the terminal emulation software.
Hi Keith,
This still seems rather complicated. Is there a popular GUI version that uses Ansible, Python Restconf and Yang to automate and if so why not just use that? It just feels like we are trying to write out math problems here instead of using a calculator
Check out Ansible Tower or AWX if you want a GUI for Ansible.
I'm going to buy a Raspberry Pi and try
keith please give me the link to the ccna 200-301 blueprint, thanks
