Cisco UCS Director custom workflow tasks are scripted in Cloupia Script. This scripting language is specific to Cisco and is used for automating tasks across various components of data center operations.

The API GET request to the ACI APIC is used to read information from a managed object (B) and an object class (D), which represents specific types of managed objects within ACI’s object model. It does not create new interfaces (A) and the response format (C, E) cannot be determined from the URL alone. References: Cisco Data Center Automation

 The network bootstrap program used by Cisco NX-OS for iPXE is called iPXE-POAP (Power-On Auto Provisioning). This process assists in automating the installation and configuration of Nexus switches. POAP automates the process of upgrading software images and installing configuration files on switches that are being deployed in the network for the first time. References: Cisco official documentation and training materials.

The -brief command in the Cisco bigmuddy-network-telemetry-collector is used to display only the message headers. This command provides a concise view of the telemetry data streamed from XR routers, which is useful for quick inspections or debugging purposes without the need for full message details1.

The error message “Request failed ” indicates that the Ansible playbook is trying to connect to the Cisco NX-OS switch using HTTP but is unable to establish a connection. This can be due to the HTTP server feature not being enabled on the NX-OS device. Enabling an HTTP server on a Cisco NX-OS device allows for remote management of the device via HTTP, which is what the Ansible playbook is attempting to do.

To resolve this issue, one would need to enable the HTTP server on the Cisco NX-OS switch. The command http-server enabled specifically enables the HTTP server feature, allowing for remote connections such as those attempted by Ansible playbooks.

Without the exhibit or the complete Python code options (A, B, C, D), it is not possible to determine which snippet correctly creates an application policy named OrderProcess with two application endpoint groups under Tenant SuperEats using direct calls to the ACI REST API. The correct answer would depend on the specific API calls made and the structure of the JSON payload in the Python code.

Cisco Application Centric Infrastructure (ACI) documentation

In Cisco NX-OS platforms, two common bootstrap technologies are supported: iPXE (Internet Protocol eXtensible Environment) and POAP (PowerOn Auto Provisioning). iPXE allows for network booting using software such as DHCP or TFTP to load an operating system over a network interface independently of data storage devices like hard disks or CD-ROM drives. POAP automates the process of upgrading software images and installing configuration files on switches that are being deployed in the network for the first time. References := Cisco NX-OS Software

Cluster Isolation (B) and Namespace Isolation (E) are Kubernetes features that allow partitioning of cluster resources and application isolation. VM Isolation (A) is not specific to Kubernetes with SCCM plugin deployment, and Process Isolation (D) is not an application isolation type in this context. References: Cisco ACI APIC CLI Configuration

The Python code Vrf(fvTenant(uniMo, 'CustA'), 'CustA_VRF) creates a VRF in an ACI tenant using the Cobra SDK. The Vrf class is instantiated with a parent fvTenant object and the name of the VRF.

When exploring automation capabilities for ACI, it’s beneficial to:

B. Look for an open-source package or SDK: These resources can simplify the process by providing pre-built functions and methods for common tasks.

C. Use the API Inspector and test API Calls: The API Inspector within ACI allows you to see the API calls that are made when you perform actions in the GUI, which is invaluable for understanding how to automate those actions.

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traditionally operates on a pull model where the management system periodically polls or requests information from network devices at set intervals. In contrast, model-driven telemetry is designed to use a push model where information is sent by network devices to the management system proactively when certain conditions are met or at set intervals without waiting for an explicit request from the management system. References := Cisco IOS XE Model-Driven Telemetry
