Interacting with a network device

As already mentioned at the start of the chapter, we are going to use Vagrant to launch a network device, and then run a playbook to apply a basic configuration. The device we will be launching is a VyOS. While the device will be a full VyOS installation, we will be applying only a test configuration to give you an idea of how the modules we mentioned in the previous section can be used.

There is a full copy of this playbook in the GitHub repository that accompanies this title.
