This document discusses DevOps in networking and provides examples of using Python libraries and Ansible to programmatically configure and monitor network devices. It describes motivations for DevOps in networking like SDN technologies, availability of network automation tools, and cloud networking. Use cases presented include configuration of L2/L3 protocols and services and network monitoring. The document also discusses network APIs, models like YANG, and tools like Ansible, Python, and protocol standards. An example demonstrates using the PyEAPI Python library to read and create VLANs on an Arista switch and using Ansible to get LLDP neighbors from a Cisco device.
