Good morning,
I would like to know if there are tools to automate the deployment of switches on the Network (other than DNA Center)?
Thanks for your help

PNP / ZTP
Plugn and Play / Zero Touch Provisioning - google you can find GIT resources.
Note : by saying that they can not replace 100% DNAC / Prime / or any orchestration tools, that provision the switch and push the configuration, you can build own API using any tools to Publish the Config after Day N)

Before DNA, I recall Cisco did have tools/methodologies for bulk/standardized deployments. @balaji.bandi mentions "zero touch", which I further recall was one of the "buzz words" for such tools/methodologies.
Whether any of such is provided or supported on current Cisco offerings, I cannot say.

Hi,
Take a look in Itential. Itential is a multi vendor automation tool. But if your concern is cost, not sure how expensive is it.
