Breakout Sessions

Catalyst 9000 Virtual topology simulation and configuration administration options – DEVNET-1441

Cisco Modelling Labs, Container Lab, KVM and Dockers… oh my! The method through which we are able to mannequin networks and create infrastructure from code is evolving. In this session we’ll use virtualization applied sciences like CML and Docker to be able to virtualize and simulate frequent community topologies and configurations. We will acquire confidence in configuration administration processes and tooling within the simulated lab and make the transition into manufacturing simpler. The full IOS XE programmability and automation lifecycle shall be demonstrated and mentioned utilizing the digital kind issue alongside YANG Suite for testing and validation.

How to Become a Cisco IOS XE Terraform Expert – DEVNET-2464

Infrastructure as Code (IAC) permits us to automate provisioning and administration of Cisco Catalyst 9000 gadgets extra effectively. In this session, automation tooling shall be used to programmatically deploy BGP EVPN community material. Infrastructure as Code ideas shall be demonstrated on the Catalyst 9000 utilizing Terraform. Both enterprise campus and cloud-native use instances and examples shall be shared. You’ll depart this session with concepts that will help you get began with Infrastructure as Code, perceive advantages of IAC, and perceive extra in regards to the Terraform tooling. With IAC and Cisco IOS XE, you possibly can automate any tooling on any interface.

Infrastructure as Code with Cisco Catalyst 9000 Virtual – BRKOPS-2455

Programmability, Automation Model Driven Telemetry on Cisco IOS XE with a touch of YANG Suite – DEVNET-1468

This programmability and automation session on Cisco IOS XE and Catalyst consists of an summary of the YANG primarily based API’s and the related YANG Suite tooling shall be used extensively. The Model Driven Telemetry capabilities may also be mentioned and the instance Docker container for assortment and visualization shall be demonstrated. As nicely as methods to create new telemetry subscriptions utilizing the Telegraf, Influx and Grafana stack and YANG Suite.

Workshops

Implementing Cisco IOS XE Model Driven Telemetry with Telegraf, InfluxDB, and Grafana – DEVWKS-2270

This hands-on workshop double-clicks on the session on this matter offered on the earlier Cisco Live occasion the place Model Driven Telemetry was detailed and demonstrated. Now lets get fingers on with Ubuntu, Docker, the TIG stack, and Catalyst gadgets to essentially perceive the ability and capabilities of YANG knowledge fashions and the Model Driven Telemetry API’s out there.

This is a hands-on DevNet Workshop the place you code together with an teacher. There are solely 20 laptops out there for the workshop and pre-registered attendees are seated first. By attending this DevNet Workshop, you may be eligible to earn Cisco Continuing Education (CE) Credits.

Lightning Talks

Automate Cisco IOS XE Device Configuration Using Terraform – DEVLIT-2083

Terraform is an open-source cloud native tooling. Terraform is an infrastructure provisioning software with zero server-side dependencies and a single binary file. Terraform for Cisco IOS XE makes use of RESTCONF and the YANG interface. It is similar to Ansible tooling, and the 2 can be utilized collectively.

Automation utilizing a number of API’s within the IOS XE Device Programmability Lab – DEVLIT-1965

Understand in regards to the numerous scripts, scripting languages, API’s, and integrations which might be used throughout the IOS XE programmability lab to ship coaching and studying occasions. Technologies together with Bash, Python, EnergyShell, vCenter, IOS XE amongst others are all built-in to supply and automatic lab surroundings

Explore and visualize YANG fashions with YANG Suite – DEVLIT-2787

YANG Suite tooling gives us visibility into YANG fashions to view operational knowledge, configure options, and stream telemetry on Cisco IOS XE, IOS XR, and NX-OS gadgets with programmatic interfaces together with NETCONF, RESTCONF, gNMI, & gRPC telemetry.

Getting Started with Secure Zero Touch Provisioning – DEVLIT-2062

Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) permits us to automate the deployment Cisco IOS XE and Catalyst platforms on enterprise and campus networks utilizing the embedded CentOS “GuestShell” Linux Container and the Python and NETCONF API’s to utterly onboard, configure and handle community gadgets. This session particulars the ZTP and Guest Shell options and explores some frequent fundamental and superior use instances.?With the most recent launch of Cisco IOS XE, we now assist Secure ZTP. This characteristic together with an evidence of the important thing elements together with conveyed data, the possession certificates, and the possession voucher. The setup configuration for Secure ZTP shall be lined on this session.

Cisco U

Explore Cisco IOS XE Automation Tooling and Use Cases – CISCOU-2013

Interested in community automation, however uncertain when to make use of which software to make use of? Join this session to find out about examples and use instances for YANG Suite, Ansible, and Terraform. Explore YANG fashions and construct payloads or telemetry streams with YANG Suite. Configure Cisco IOS XE gadgets with Ansible and Terraform and be taught extra in regards to the variations between these instruments on this session.

gNMI Oh My! Automation with the gRPC micro-services on IOS XE – CISCOU-2021

Have you been listening to so much in regards to the Google API’s lately? Join this session to find out about totally different use instances and examples for gNMI, gNOI and gRPC with Cisco IOS XE. Together we’ll discover the choices for community configuration administration and telemetry utilizing gNMI. We may also study a side-by-side comparability of the Google telemetry protocols in comparison with SNMP, NETCONF and RESTCONF. The Google and gRPC primarily based API’s and protocols are rapidly rising in reputation – this periods particulars why that’s the case and reveals how you can successfully leverage these options.

Model Driven Telemetry with Cisco IOS XE made Simple – CISCOU-1024

With as we speak’s rapidly evolving networks, it’s essential to grasp how community adjustments impact every side of the community. Here comes telemetry to the rescue! As we view community knowledge over time (from CPU, reminiscence, and past), we are able to higher perceive how you can optimize our community configuration and rapidly determine potential areas of curiosity. Through this session, we’ll find out about customized dashboarding and visualization instruments together with Telegraf, Influx and Grafana with Cisco IOS XE gadgets.
