TOPIC 2. NETWORK MARKET TRENDS &
TRADITIONAL STONE-AGE YEARS

Current Network Statistics

Current Scenarios

Current Trends

Which Change we Need ?

The Network We Had..

Today’s Network is Changing….We Have/Want !!

Network Journey
1970:- Point to Point Network
1990:- LAN –VLAN – STP – L2
2000: WAN – ROUTING – L3
2010: VXLAN – CONTROLLERS - SDN
2020: Cloud , DevOps, NetDevOps, APIs, NaaC, IaaC etc etc.

The #3 Ages of Network Times…
VLAN’s -VTP–STP – RSTP –
RIP-EIGRP
Traditional Age
SDN – NFV – OpenFlow –
VXLAN – MP-BGP -
Controllers
Medieval
Cloud – Python – DevOps –
NETCONF- NETDEVOPS –
API’s – Containers –
Orchestration - Kubernetes
Modern Age

The Different Avatars. But all are the Same
NetDevOps : - Cisco
NetOps : -Arista
NRE : -Juniper
SuperNetOps: F5
Your Company/Team: ??

The Real Definition:-
“NetDevOps brings the culture, technical methods, strategies, and
best practices of DevOps to Networking.”

TOPIC 3. EMBRACING DEVOPS
CULTURE / PRINCIPLES / TOOLS

All we want is the right Team in Place…

DEV-OPS

DevOps Pipeline

Setting the Right Tool In Place

TOPIC 4:- MODERN AGE

SDN – Software Defined Networking

SDN Controller - ONOS

The New #3 Operating Models

NetDevOps Operating Model
1. Network As a Code –NaaC
2. IT as a Service
3. Controller-Driven

TOPIC 5:- PUT DEVOPS IN YOUR
NETWORK

Network Stake Holders
Basically 2 Categories :-
➢Network Builders
▪Networking Team
▪Design, Architect, Maintain THE Network
▪Care-Takers and Feeders
➢Network Consumers
▪THE Users
▪Consumer NETWORK Services
▪Its UTILITY and Should Work

What is Actually Happening ?? AUTOMATE…X

The On-Going Saying…
“Everyone has a TEST
Environment, and No One has a
Separate PRODUCTION
Environment”

FEAR or CHANGE ?? Choice is Yours …

All Acronyms and Buzz Words…

TOPIC 6. NETDEVOPS CICD PIPELINES
LAYOUT

NetDevOps Principles
❑Network As a Code & Infrastructure as a Code & Configuration
Management Strategies
❑Continuous Development Approach to Network Changes
❑Continuous Health and Improvement Approach to Monitoring

NETDEVOPS STRUCTURE

NetDevOps Tool-Chain

Tooling…Don’t be Picky too much
oOpen Source / Commercial
oSupported Integrations
oPricing
oCapabilities / Compatibility
oPopularity
oProgrammability Versions
oUse Multiple tools to get the environments UP and Running !!

NetDevOps Pipeline Layout

TOPIC 7.NETWORK ENGINEER IN
NETDEVOPS AGE

CI-CD Process Flow

Some Key Terminologies
- IaC : Infrastructure as Code IaC is the process of managing and
provisioning computer data centers through machine readable
definition files..
- NaC : Stores code in DVCS and uses CM tools and majorly
YAML/JSON format
- CM: Configuration Management : A mechanism for maintaining
the characteristics of a system

IaaC

Configuration Management

NetDevOps Pipeline Stages
- Files in Repos provides pipeline definition
- All YML Files
Mostly YAML format
Define the Build Phases
- Use Plugins
- Use Libraries
- Execute commands
- Operate Conditionally

NetDevOps….In Simpler FLOW

NetDevOps Configuration Pipeline
- Treating everything as Network As A Code
- Network Configs stored in Source Control
- Changes are proposed in Code Branches
- Build Agents, Servers deploy and test configurations
- Successful configurations automatically deployed to Production

Network Automation and Programmability
Two Cases
1- Gather info of n/w device, backup config – Ansible 2- Configure Multiple SW using Multiple VLAN - Python

Value of Automation and Programmability

TOPIC 8. KEY-TAKE AWAY’S

Get Your Hands Dirty…
Stone-Age Engineers Modern-Age Engineers
