Any way to discovery current network and auto-create an Ansible playbook?

[DavidKingAZ]

What might be the best way to auto-create an Ansible playbook(s) from a pre-existing network?  Instead of manually creating all of the YAML files I need for my pre-existing network, is there a quick way to have my configs captured into a YAML file formatted as an Ansible playbook.

Hello @DavidKingAZ,

Here are some resources, which may prove helpful:

• Ansible Network Backup - Repo on DevNet Automation Exchange that backs up the configuration of a network device into a git repository.
• ansible-nso-restconf - Repo on DevNet Automation Exchange to Learn by Doing: Infra as Code with Ansible RESTCONF on NSO
• Cisco DevNet Code Exchange - All results for 'Ansible'
• Agentless Configuration Management - Presentation slides from Cisco Live explaining Ansible in detail

Hope this helps!
