In this episode you will learn:
- Ansible is agentless and uses a push model, making it ideal for network devices where agents cannot be installed.
- Puppet and Chef are primarily agent-based and use a pull model, where nodes check in with a master server for configuration.
- The CCNA exam tests your ability to select the correct tool based on scenario requirements, primarily agent-based versus agentless.
- Key terminology to match: Ansible uses YAML Playbooks, Puppet uses Manifests, and Chef uses Recipes and Cookbooks.
- Idempotence is a core concept ensuring operations result in the same system state, preventing unintended changes on subsequent runs.
