This respository is simply a collection of ansible playbooks I've put together over the years.

04/04/2023 - Created folder 2023/

• Just getting familiar with the most recent version of ansible after some time away.

• Plan familiarizing myself with the changes by creating reference playbooks in section 2023/examples:

  • ansible/2023/examples/pb_ios_rtr_cfg_bkup.yaml
  • ansible/2023/examples/pb_remove_route_ios_rtr.yaml
  • ansible/2023/examples/pb_ios_commands.yaml

• Using GNS3 lab with old c7200 ios image. However still provies more router functionality than packt tracer.

• Using linux mint for automation host on virtualbox
