JCL_Ansible_Playbooks

This project is allowing config of Juniper device, Spirent TestCenter, and Ixia IxLoad to be saved, and templatized. It also enables the config to be re-pushed in a new sandbox for the same blueprint(topology).

Prerequisite

This project works together with HelperVM. HelperVM comes up with ansible inventory files(under /etc/ansible) for the project to consume.

1 - Pull config from Juniper device and Ixia/Spirent, and then templatize(get-config-from-device.yml)

ansible-playbook get-config-from-device.yml

2 - Push the current directory to customized JCL Git Server(push-directory-to-git.yml)

ansible-playbook push-directory-to-git.yml --extra-vars "DirName=<YourGitRepositoryName>"

3 - Push config to Juniper and ixia/spirent devices(install-config-to-device.yml)

ansible-playbook install-config-to-device.yml
