Copilot In the context of CCNA (Cisco Certified Network Associate) and network automation, an Ansible inventory plays a crucial role. Let’s dive into what it is: Definition: An Ansible inventory is a file or group of files that defines the managed nodes (also known as “hosts”) you want to automate. It provides information about the hosts’ names, IP addresses, ports, and other relevant details. Purpose: Automation: Ansible uses the inventory to automate tasks on the managed nodes. Grouping: You can organize hosts into groups within the inventory. This allows you to run automation tasks on multiple hosts simultaneously. Patterns: Once your inventory is defined, you use patterns to select specific hosts or groups for Ansible to operate on. Formats: The simplest inventory is a single file with a list of hosts and groups. The default location for this file is /etc/ansible/hosts. Common formats include INI and YAML.
