In this chapter, we learned about the different types of network automation available today and why we chose Python to be our primary tool in network automation. Also, we learned how to install EVE-NG over different hypervisors and platforms, how to provide the initial configuration, and how to add our network images to the images catalog. Then, we added different nodes and connected them together to create our network enterprise lab.
In the next chapter, we will start building our Python scripts that automate different tasks in the topology using different Python libraries, such as telnetlib, Netmiko, Paramiko, and Pexpect.
