Chapter 25. Automated Configuration Strategies
Automated configuration of networking equipment is becoming a niche market, with companies springing up to develop tools and applications to ensure that human error is mitigated in the quest to achieve high availability. Whether you use external vendor software or the built-in JUNOScript tools to automate configuration of your equipment, it is necessary to develop strategies for the automation. At each level of the design and within each functional area, the key components of high availability may be different and your network automated configuration strategies must reflect this. Although automated configurations normally focus on carefully planned changes that are applied with the deployment of new equipment or services, you must also have strategies to handle automated configuration changes for issues that arise unexpectedly.
