The Ansible architecture consist of playbooks, plays, and tasks. Take a look at previously df_playbook.yml:
Ansible Playbook
The whole file is called a playbook, which contains one ore more plays. Each play can consist of one or more tasks. In our simple example, we only have one play, which contains a single task. In this section, we will take a look at the following:
- YAML: This format is extensively used in Ansible to express playbooks and variables.
- Inventory: Inventory is where you can specify and group hosts in your infrastructure. You can also optionally specify host and group variables in the inventory file.
- Variables: Each of the network device is different. It has different hostname, IP, neighbor relations, and such. Variables allow for a standard set of plays while still accommodating these differences.
- Templates: Templates are nothing new...
