Ansible is a powerful automation tool used for IT tasks such as configuration management, application deployment, and task automation. In the context of the exhibit, Ansible can be used to automate the removal of a Cisco Meraki device from the network and retrieve device information.

Device Management: Ansible modules, such as the meraki_device module shown in the exhibit, allow for the management of Meraki devices. Tasks can include querying device information and changing the state of the device.

Automation with Playbooks: The Ansible playbook in the exhibit demonstrates how to authenticate, define the organization and network, and manage the device state (query or absent).

Task Execution: The playbook is structured to perform tasks using a loop (with_items) to execute actions such as querying device details and removing the device (absent state).

Telnet is a network protocol that allows a user to communicate with a remote device or server. The default TCP port used by Telnet is port 23. This port is standardized and commonly used for Telnet connections to access network devices for administrative purposes.

GIT PUSH

To start a CI/CD pipeline and run automated tests after modifying the code in a cloned repository, the appropriate command is git push. When a developer pushes the changes to the remote repository, it triggers the CI/CD pipeline configured in the repository. Here are the steps:

Clone the repository from GitLab.

Make the necessary code modifications.

Use git commit to commit the changes locally.

Use git push to push the committed changes to the remote repository.

Pushing the changes to the remote repository initiates the CI/CD pipeline, which typically includes steps like building the application, running tests, and deploying the application if tests pass.
