Ansible + Extreme Networks

Examples and docs showing how to use Ansible with Extreme Networks switches and routers.

Intro

Ansible is an Open Source configuration management system. It can be used for automating infrastructure and applications. It can also be used for automating network devices. This requires modules for your device.

MLXe modules were added to Ansible 2.5. SLX series modules were added in Ansible 2.6. The first module for EXOS, exos_command, shipped in 2.6. Further modules were added in 2.7. Modules for VDX and VSP devices were added in 2.7. httpapi support for EXOS switches is in 2.8.

Further modules are being developed as Open Source modules, and you can follow along with the development.

As modules get developed for more Extreme platforms, we'll update this doc, and add examples to this repo.
