Automated deployment of systems
Automated deployment of systems
The goal of this blog is to show some of the capabilities that make NetBox a terrific tool and will be using NetBox as your network Source of Truth for automation!
I've recently been investigating doing some automated zero touch deployment stuff in my lab.
I have PXE boot in my lab but I feel like I'm under utilizing it. I was thinking about exploring using ansible with netbox as right now I only use netbox as a glorified wiki.
I'm just curious if anyone here has zero touch deployment and has any interesting takes on what it is good for and what it isn't good for (I would really like to hear about some edge cases).
Thanks!

Setup a good kickstart script (even if it's just enough for Ansible to Configure it the rest of the way). It's awesome when messing with a system to be able to reboot select the reinstall PXE boot option and get a fresh install to tinker on.
On a similar note, I want to try boot2container as my PXE target next personally
