Network Automation

Efficient, Scalable, and Insight-Driven Networks

At Miriquidi Networks, we enable businesses to streamline network operations through advanced network automation solutions. By leveraging tools like Ansible, Netbox, Python, and telemetry protocols such as gNMI, we automate complex tasks, ensuring your network is efficient, scalable, and reliable.

Why Network Automation?

  • Reduced Human Error: Automation minimizes manual configuration errors, ensuring consistent and secure deployments.
  • Faster Deployment: Provision devices and update configurations across the network in minutes.
  • Real-Time Insights: Continuous monitoring and telemetry data provide deep visibility into network health and performance.
  • Scalability: Manage large-scale networks without proportional increases in manual workload.

Key Tools and Technologies

  1. Ansible:
    Ansible is a powerful, agentless tool that automates tasks such as device provisioning, configuration management, and multi-vendor orchestration.

    • Configuration Management: Consistent, template-based device configurations across the network.
    • Zero-Touch Provisioning: Automatically configure new devices with predefined settings.
    • Version Control: Track changes with Git integration for easy rollback.
  2. Netbox:
    Netbox serves as the single source of truth for your network, managing inventory, IP addresses, and VLANs.

    • Inventory Management: Real-time overview of your network assets.
    • IP Address Management (IPAM): Automate efficient IP address allocation.
    • Automation Integration: Synchronize with Ansible for seamless updates.
  3. Python:
    Python scripts enable custom automation for tasks like real-time monitoring, API integration, and advanced troubleshooting.

    • Custom Automation: Tailored workflows and API integrations with vendor devices.
    • Automated Monitoring: Script-based monitoring and log analysis for proactive troubleshooting.
  4. gNMI (gRPC Network Management Interface) and Telemetry:
    gNMI and telemetry provide real-time data collection and programmatic control over network devices.

    • Real-Time Streaming: Continuous data from devices for performance insights.
    • Dynamic Configuration: Instant configuration adjustments based on telemetry metrics.

Use Cases

  • Device Provisioning: Automate device setup, reducing deployment time and manual effort.
  • Configuration Compliance: Ensure all devices follow security and operational standards.
  • Monitoring and Troubleshooting: Use telemetry and Python scripts for real-time network insights and automatic troubleshooting.
  • Predictive Maintenance: Identify potential issues early using telemetry, enabling proactive maintenance.

Benefits

  • Scalability: Easily expand your network with automated processes.
  • Efficiency: Save time and resources by automating repetitive tasks.
  • Consistency: Ensure uniform configurations across all devices.
  • Proactive Network Management: Real-time telemetry data enables faster responses to network issues.

Our automation solutions help you operate a more agile, scalable, and responsive network. With tools like Ansible, Netbox, and gNMI, Miriquidi Networks ensures your network runs smoothly with minimal manual intervention.
