Actual exam question from Cisco's 350-901
Question #: 9
Topic #: 1
[All 350-901 Questions]

A network operations team is using the cloud to automate some of their managed customer and branch locations. They require that all of their tooling be ephemeral by design and that the entire automation environment can be recreated without manual commands. Automation code and configuration state will be stored in git for change control and versioning. The engineering high-level plan is to use VMs in a cloud-provider environment, then configure open source tooling onto these VMs to poll, test, and configure the remote devices, as well as deploy the tooling itself.
Which configuration management and/or automation tooling is needed for this solution?

  • A. Ansible
  • B. Ansible and Terraform
  • C. NSO
  • D. Terraform
  • E. Ansible and NSO

I think B is correct, Terraform is open source and that is the keyword here.

I think answer B is correct here: Terraform is to build the VMs in the cloud environment and Ansible to automate the network operations.

Selected Answer: B
B is correct since Terraform will be used to provision the VM while Ansible will be used as configuration management.

I will Go for NSO or NSO and Ansible, because is talking about a networking operation team and well NSO is perfect for Network Orchestation with different vendors the one thing that makes me doubt is if you can save the automation code and NSO is used for automation in git, i know that it use YANG and that can be saved on git, but if NSO cant automate then it will be a great combo with Ansible, but if it can i will just go for NSO.

Yes but NSO isn't opensource and therefor B is correct as stated earlier. Ansible is opensource and Terraform. Terraform is used to deploy the infrastructure and Ansible to deploy the rule set's on VM's and Network equipment.
