Network automation was not well practiced or well understood inside our network engineering team, but was sorely needed. We needed to decrease effort and mistakes on daily management tasks by minimizing the direct human interaction with network devices. High on our list was improving network performance and security.

In addition, you will learn what we did right, what we did wrong, and how we benefited from:
Faster deployment times
Faster feedback on network changes
Adherence to challenging PSIRT/CSIRT timeframes
