In this Ansible Jinja2 Template Tutorial I will be demonstrating how to use Ansible to generate network configurations from templates for Cisco routers.

This example is using Ansible installed on Ubuntu and takes a very simple 3 router template configuring hostname, loopback address and an enable secret password.

It will demonstrate how using ansible for configuration management of network devices is very simple with Jinja 2 and YAML.
Creating the Ansible Playbooks that will tie together a base config built with variables defined in a separate Jinja file

This Cisco router configuration tutorial only uses 3 routers but it demonstrates the power of Ansible for Network Engineers and how it can scale to provide configurations for thousands of devices.

In a later video I will describe once the network configuration has been built, how to push that to the device.
