Question

A stormwater bureau stores per-site variables in YAML and needs consistent IOS XE configs for dozens of pump-station routers. Which concept best describes generating those configs from the data?

Accepted Answer

Apply Jinja-style templating so loops and variables in a template render site-specific CLI from the structured YAML — Templating is the cookie cutter: YAML is the dough (site data), Jinja-like templates are the cutter shape, and each pump station gets a consistently shaped config. Hand-pasting fifty routers is how typos flood the storm drains.

Answer

Paste identical full configs by hand and edit hostnames only in Notepad after each paste

Answer

Disable all routing protocols and rely on default routes alone so templates are unnecessary

Answer

Capture packets with EPC and convert pcap files into running-config automatically
