Realworld implementation and the way code can be understood and written

Requirements

No Requirements. A basis understanding of Juniper OS and Python programming will help

Description

This course primarily aims at providing fundamental building blocks of Network Automation while being very specific to Juniper JNCIA Devops. While the principles are universal topics are streamlined towards JNCIA-Devops certification. I covered CI/CD pipeline and real world code thinking from y experience in various Network Automation roles previously with Amazon and other startups. I hope you will enjoy the course. The course starts with package and code-editor setups to running docker containers in the cloud and finally building a Pipeline for the deployment. On a high level - Code Editor and environment setup - Pyez exploration- Jsnapy Exploration - XML Parsing and Juniper Device interaction More about JNCIA-DevopsThe JNCIA-DevOps is the associate-level certification of the Automation and DevOps Track in Juniper Networks' Certification Program. The cert validates the holder's expertise at using scripting tools and languages to automate devices and networks that operate with the Juniper Network Junos operating system.Below are the topics which are covered in the courseJunos Automation Stack and DevOps ConceptsIdentify concepts and general features of Junos Platform automation or DevOpsAutomation toolsAutomation frameworksAutomation APIsDevOps culture, practices, and toolsNETCONF/XML APIIdentify concepts and general functionality of XML, the XML API, XPath, or Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF)XML concepts and syntaxXPath concepts and syntaxNETCONF conceptsXML API concepts and syntaxData SerializationIdentify the concepts, benefits, or operation of data serializationYAMLJavaScript Object Notation (JSON)Python/PyEZIdentify Python or PyEZ tools for automating Junos OS devices and networksSyntax and conceptsJunos Snapshot Administrator (JSNAPy)Jinja2Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs)PyEZ exception handlingDevice status and configuration handlingRest APIIdentify the concepts, benefits, or operation of the Junos REST APIJunos REST APIJunos REST API ExplorerClient URL (cURL) access for the REST API
