Getting Started with NaC-ND
The Network as Code (NaC) for Nexus Dashboard solution is designed to provide a comprehensive Infrastructure as Code (IaC) solution for managing network configurations on Cisco Nexus devices. The current released solution is built over Ansible. This capability utilizes the Cisco DCNM Galaxy collection.
The solution is built on the Ansible collection that is provided by Cisco and published on Ansible Galaxy. The collection provides a set of Ansible modules and roles that allow users to manage network configurations on Cisco Nexus Dashboard. The Network as Code for Nexus Dashboard interacts with the DCNM Galaxy collection.
The first best step to on-boarding for the solution is to utilize the example repository provided by Cisco. This example repository provides the correct file structure and all necesary files to get started with the solution. The example repository includes a comprehensive README file that provides detailed instructions on how to use setup the repository for execution.
We have also provided a comprehensive learning lab guide that you can follow to gain hands-on experience with the solution.
