* https://www.itential.com/network-automation-use-cases/vxlan-bgp-evpn-deployments/ * Demo notes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFnduaprp-o|External Link]]: * Agree for the source of truth. Ideally Netbox. * Itential is based on ansible and extensive jinja templates. * Concept of ''automation gateway'' * Important: the demo above is about adding vlan/vni/subnet, __not adding a tenant, tenat is a higher abstraction__ ---- Ask Itential: * Demo/lab: create infrastructure (config switches) * can I install itential as a vm in my lab/poc? Would be veos most likely * Where jinja folders are (troubleshooting) * ---- Send somewhere else: * Network evaluation notes: * Collect info about the network * is there a source of truth for things like ipam and vlan allocation? netbox * Agree performance tests
