Overview

This lab provides hands-on experience with the programmability infrastructure of Cisco® IOS XR. The new infrastructure gives you great flexibility for managing device data models, encodings, and transport options. In this lab, you will use IOS XR native, IETF, and OpenConfig YANG models to interact with NETCONF and Google RPC agents running on IOS XR. In addition, this lab demonstrates how to run simple Python scripts and Ansible playbooks that use model-driven APIs to dramatically simplify network programmability and automation of IOS XR.
