Question 3 Topic 4

Topic 4
A company owns a large-scale compute infrastructure that consists of over 1000 servers and virtual machines. The
operational complexity continues to grow with additional policies and servers added to the environment. An infrastructure
engineer is looking for an automation tool to reduce the operational complexity of configuring complex infrastructure.
Because of the strict security requirements, the tool must be agentless, use the secure shell for transport, and be extendable
using existing Python modules. Which tool meets these requirements?

  • A. Puppet
  • B. NSO
  • C. Saltstack
  • D. Ansible

(Choose two.)

  • A. NX-API
  • B. HTTPS
  • C. HTTP
  • D. Bash shell
  • E. SSH

Question 5 Topic 4

Topic 4
An engineer wants to eliminate the manual process of checking the system hardware and firmware against a specified
hardware compatibility tool. The tool must be able to manage an extensive list of devices including Cisco HyperFlex, MDS,
and Nexus switches. The tool must manage hardware in multiple data centers so it should be deployed on public cloud
infrastructure.

Question 7 Topic 4

Topic 4
A company must introduce a scalable network automation tool to deploy, configure, and manage thousands of network
devices and servers. The company servers already have been security-hardened and must not have any additional software
installed on them. The security policy mandates the use of a secure communication protocol that supports authentication and
encryption for managing the servers.
