Are you a network, infrastructure, or security engineer that finds yourself repeating the same tasks over and over as if it were Groundhog Day? Are you overloaded and struggling with human error, config drift, and compliance?
If that sounds like you, join us for a DevNet Test Drive and start on your journey toward automation. Test Drives are in-person technical learning events where we will guide you through your first hands-on steps with automation, APIs, and Python. After attending, you will be ready to start automating your manual and repetitive tasks through programmability.
Test Drives currently come in three flavors:
- DNA Test Drive. In this 2-day workshop about Digital Network Architecture (DNA), you will learn about network APIs and automation. You will make your first hands-on REST API calls on Cisco DNA Center and Meraki Dashboard, run some Ansible playbooks against IOS devices, and take your first steps with network automation in Python.
- IOS-XE Programmability Test Drive. In this 1-day workshop about Cisco IOS XE, you will discover how to use Ansible and Cisco DNA Center to automate Cisco network infrastructure and collect Model Driven Telemetry (MDT) from IOS XE.
- Security Test Drive. In this 2-day workshop, you will learn how to automate cybersecurity operations. During the event, you’ll experience an automation-first approach by creating repeatable, consistent detections and responses using Cisco security tools and their corresponding APIs.
