Thank you, David so much for this Video, I'm a Network Engineer, and today my company will deploy Automation tools, and I'm trying to train myself on ANSIBLE, Keep uploading these topics.

Hey David..many thanks for how you have been guiding us fellow network engineers.. you are the one and only..thanks again..I certainly look upto your content day in day out.. Cheers!!

Thank you for this David, I would like to think that for an 1h video you get a lot more views but I'm pretty sure its quite the opposite. Because of that I want to thank you even more, because for the few ones that stayed the whole hour this can help tremendously.

Great video! Looking forward to more on Ansible. Thanks for making this great content available.

Network automation is where we 're going , it is where the world is looking at....... every network engineer nowaday has to learn about Network Automation..................

Thank You David and Donald for this Informative Video.

Thank you sir, I am from India and I don't have enough money to buy a course or learn hacking you help me a lot 💓

This video was awesome, I got Ansible set up within CML on an ubuntu server and it was a great way to practice network automation within a lab enviroment, really enjoyed this video.

This is an excellent video on Ansible. Look forward to more of these.

Woohoo New Ansible/Network Automation content, Thanks David and Donald

First one to watch it David hope to know me . Still watching and enjoying the video......

Nice one sir. Your videos inspired me to pursue programming as a carrier

Great video! Thanks for sharing. I work in an isp company and actually in the middle of a project where I use ansible exactly as shown in this video. My ansible playbooks will eventually provision new orders coming from our erp system and will configure business customer's connections through our network. Ansible will do a lot of heavy lifting to setup L2, vlans, ip addresses...etc in our infrastructure. Fun project! Looking forward to get more ideas to upgrade my playbooks from you videos series.

Thanks for helping us

Awesome content

Amazing!

Thank you for the input on how to start with Ansible. I did follow the logic and created my own lab with AOScx images. I am looking for some guidance to get over a challenge where the ansible module loaded on Ubuntu is unable to ping the switch. I can do both ping & ssh from Ubuntu to switch but it's not working via the ansible module. ansible version- [core 2.12.2] Python= 3.8.10 jinja ver= 2.10.1

Thankyou David sir

I love this video. Tho I am wondering... Why would we want to install ansible in a virtual python env, in a virtual machine? or even on a physical machine?

Thank you 🙏😊

Ansible vs Terraform... What do you use? What do you recommend to major first, taking into account that I am a network engineer, but getting into cloud.

@ThePacketThrower

Ansible is generally more useful for networking stuff, Terraform is meant for building resources rather than configuring them

Sir please help me out, after taking in mind my goal is to being penetration tester so please 🙏 tell me that should I go first for learning networking or programming??????? 🙏 please sir help me out.

YAML supports tab, but I think PyCharm may not. No issues in VSCode, but that may also be the YAML VSC extension.

I'm very curious how he setup his Pycharm. Mine looks completely different and I don't know how to set it up like his, or of that even matters.

if one has VMware Workstation, what would one need to run a virtual Router, as your guest was doing?

Hi David ...Could you please refer the book for Network automation with Ansible and python.....? i would like to purchase and planning to start read...pls if any one knows assist with the name of book which available in Amazon or other online source to purchase.

HI David ! question : do you recommend taking RHCSA after completing CCNA? i really like linux but i feel that everything is cisco based so im thinking RHCSA might be not the best option after CCNA...? 🤔

Agreed, but then you have to pay for CML. But with GNS3/EVE-NG you could create networks for free (without Cisco & depends on vendor).

Thank you so much David again for the willingness to always help and educate your audience, but I have to be honest for a moment here, as soon as this guy started describing himself as expert on this, expert on that, SME, SME, I don't know you all, but his attitude reflected two red flags for me, 1) gleams personal insecurities 2) whatever he demonstrate here will end up disappointing you and on the long run disappoint himself as well... why would you put yourself in that position...total lack of humbleness, This is one of the very few videos posted by David in which I tried very hard not to stop watching it, especially around minute 34:10...

SME is common term in American companies who is referred to someone knowledgeable about a system more than others in that company. It's actually nice of him to spend time sharing his knowledge on someone else's YT channel for free. So don't take it personally.

@@afara2000 US citizen here, I can say I have been around experiencing those places IBM, AWS, Bloomberg, all similar, politics, bureaucracy, a lot of what some call impostors, this is the main reason why I admire David Bombal, Keith Barker, and one of my favorites this days Charles Judd, who I highly recommend to watch and hopefully one day David can also invite and interview in his channel. Regarding your comment of "appearing in a YT channel for free" Have you seen David, or Keith, or even myself (yes I do have a YT channel as well) asking for anyone to pay for their very valuable knowledge or time? just do the Math, who do you hear about the must around the network engineering community, David, Keith, Charles, etc. or this person, who seems desperately in need of scrambling himself in a simple basic Ansible demonstration video. There was absolutely no need to made it extra complicated showing the github integration or going with a commercial IDE like pycharm. In all honesty... no thanks, I think there are many other resources out there that will be honored to be in David's YT channel, resources that I have seen they already share and support the network engineering community for free! another fact regarding your "free comment" Have you heard about GNU/Linux, free software that took over the commercial server version of Microsoft and all other cloud infrastructures as standard, and! will also take over the network OS systems as well. That I guarantee it, and again GNU/Linux is free!
