• Demo notes 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
