Procedure

  1. Prepare your Ansible environment:

Install Ansible if you haven't already Ensure you have network connectivity to your Catalyst Center instance. Checkout the project and playbooks: git@github.com:cisco-en-programmability/catalyst-center-ansible-iac.git

  1. Configure Host Inventory:

The host_inventory_dnac1/hosts.yml file specifies the connection details (IP address, credentials, etc.) for your Catalyst Center instance. Make sure the dnac_version in this file matches your actual Catalyst Center version. ##The Sample host_inventory_dnac1/hosts.yml

catalyst_center_hosts:
    hosts:
        catalyst_center220:
            dnac_host: xx.xx.xx.xx.
            dnac_password: XXXXXXXX
            dnac_port: 443
            dnac_timeout: 60
            dnac_username: admin

            dnac_version: 2.3.7.6
            dnac_debug: true
