In network automation, CI can run syntax checks, unit tests, linting, security checks, or validation against automation code before changes are deployed. This helps identify problems earlier in the development lifecycle. NAT translates addresses, VLANs provide logical Layer 2 segmentation, and ARP maps IPv4 addresses to MAC addresses. Therefore, CI is the development practice associated with automatically validating submitted code changes.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 106<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which practice automatically deploys validated software changes into a target environment?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continuous Deployment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manual configuration<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Static routing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Network discovery<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continuous Deployment is a software-delivery practice in which changes that pass the required automated validation can be deployed automatically to a target environment. In network automation, a deployment pipeline could validate an updated automation script or configuration template and then automatically execute an approved deployment workflow. Continuous Integration focuses primarily on integrating and validating changes, while continuous deployment extends automation into the deployment stage. Static routing and network discovery are networking functions unrelated to software delivery. Therefore, Continuous Deployment is the practice described in the question.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 107<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which tool is commonly used to define automated build, test, and deployment workflows in a CI\/CD environment?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jenkins<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wireshark<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PuTTY<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nmap<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jenkins is a widely used automation server that can implement CI\/CD workflows. It can execute jobs that build software, run automated tests, perform validation, and trigger deployment processes. In network automation environments, Jenkins can integrate with Git repositories, Python scripts, Ansible, APIs, and other tools to create automated pipelines. Wireshark is primarily a packet-analysis tool, PuTTY provides terminal and remote-session capabilities, and Nmap is commonly used for network discovery and scanning. Therefore, Jenkins is the appropriate tool among these choices for implementing CI\/CD workflows.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 108<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which concept describes automatically validating automation code before it is deployed to production?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Automated testing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Address translation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Packet forwarding<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">VLAN trunking<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Automated testing involves executing predefined tests automatically to verify that software or automation code behaves as expected. In network automation, tests can validate Python functions, API interactions, configuration templates, data structures, or generated device configurations before deployment. Automated testing helps identify errors earlier and can be integrated into CI\/CD pipelines. Address translation, packet forwarding, and VLAN trunking are networking functions and do not specifically validate automation code. Therefore, automated testing is the appropriate concept for checking automation code before it reaches a production environment.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 109<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which type of test verifies an individual function or small piece of automation code in isolation?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unit test<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Load test<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physical test<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Acceptance-only test<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A unit test focuses on a small, isolated part of a program, such as an individual function or method. For example, a network automation developer could create a unit test to verify that a Python function correctly validates an IP address or transforms device data. Unit tests are generally fast and can be executed automatically during development or CI pipelines. Larger tests may evaluate multiple components or complete workflows. Load testing focuses on performance under workload, while physical testing is not a standard software unit-testing category. Therefore, a unit test is the appropriate choice for testing an individual function.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 110<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which approach tests multiple software components together to verify that they interact correctly?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Integration testing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Syntax highlighting<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unit commenting<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Version tagging<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Integration testing verifies that multiple components work together correctly. In network automation, this could involve testing an automation script&#8217;s interaction with an API, authentication service, device-management platform, and data-processing functions. A unit test generally focuses on one isolated component, while integration testing examines interactions between components. Syntax highlighting only improves code readability, commenting documents code, and version tagging identifies a particular software release or point in project history. Therefore, integration testing is the appropriate method for validating interactions between multiple automation components.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 111<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which automation practice compares the current device state against an expected configuration to identify differences?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">State validation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Packet fragmentation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">DNS recursion<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MAC learning<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">State validation compares the actual state of a device or network resource against an expected or desired state. In network automation, this can be used to determine whether interfaces, routing parameters, VLANs, access policies, or other configurations match the defined requirements. If differences are detected, automation can report them or, depending on the system, take corrective action. Packet fragmentation, DNS recursion, and MAC learning are networking operations unrelated to configuration validation. Therefore, state validation is the appropriate automation practice for identifying differences between actual and expected device states.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 112<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which term describes automatically correcting a device configuration when it differs from the defined desired state?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remediation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serialization<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parsing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Discovery<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remediation refers to taking corrective action when an identified problem or configuration deviation needs to be fixed. In network automation, remediation can involve changing a device configuration so that it returns to the defined desired state. For example, if an interface configuration has been changed unexpectedly, an automation workflow could detect the deviation and apply the approved configuration. Serialization converts data into a transferable representation, parsing interprets structured information, and discovery identifies available resources. Therefore, remediation is the appropriate term for automatically correcting a configuration problem.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 113<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which format is commonly used to exchange structured information between automation applications and REST APIs?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">JSON<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MP3<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">JPEG<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WAV<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">JSON is one of the most common formats used to exchange structured information between automation applications and REST APIs. It represents objects, arrays, strings, numbers, Boolean values, and null values in a machine-readable structure that is also relatively easy for humans to understand. Automation scripts can parse JSON responses and construct JSON request bodies when interacting with APIs. MP3 and WAV are audio formats, while JPEG is an image format. Therefore, JSON is the appropriate format for structured API communication in many network automation environments.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 114<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which process converts structured data such as JSON text into native objects that a programming language can work with?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parsing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Encryption<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Routing<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compression<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Parsing is the process of analyzing structured data and converting it into a representation that software can work with. For example, a Python application can parse a JSON response and convert it into dictionaries, lists, strings, and other Python objects. Once parsed, the program can access individual fields and make decisions based on the returned information. Encryption protects information from unauthorized access, routing determines paths for network traffic, and compression reduces data size. Therefore, parsing is the correct term for interpreting structured JSON data in an automation application.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 115<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which term describes converting a programming object into a format suitable for storage or transmission?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serialization<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Iteration<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Authentication<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compilation<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serialization converts an object or data structure into a representation suitable for storage or transmission. For example, a Python dictionary can be serialized into JSON before being sent to a REST API. The receiving application can then deserialize the representation back into a usable data structure. Serialization is common in automation because applications frequently exchange structured information between different systems. Iteration means repeatedly processing items, authentication verifies identity, and compilation transforms source code into another executable or intermediate representation. Therefore, serialization is the correct term for converting objects into transferable representations.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 116<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which mechanism allows an automation system to determine whether a remote device is reachable before attempting further operations?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connectivity check<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data serialization<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Template rendering<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Version tagging<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A connectivity check verifies whether an automation system can communicate with a remote device before continuing with additional operations. Depending on the environment, this may involve testing network reachability, establishing an SSH session, checking an API endpoint, or performing another supported connectivity test. Performing such a check can help automation workflows handle unreachable devices gracefully instead of failing unexpectedly during later tasks. Data serialization prepares information for transmission, template rendering generates configuration content, and version tagging identifies software revisions. Therefore, a connectivity check is the appropriate mechanism for verifying reachability.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 117<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which automation practice uses a predefined configuration template and substitutes device-specific variables before deployment?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Template rendering<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Packet capture<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Route summarization<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">MAC filtering<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Template rendering generates configuration output by combining a predefined template with variables or structured data. For example, one interface configuration template can be reused for many routers while variables provide each device&#8217;s interface name, IP address, description, or VLAN information. This approach improves consistency and reduces the need to manually create separate configuration files for every device. Packet capture collects network traffic, route summarization combines routes, and MAC filtering controls Layer 2 access. Therefore, template rendering is the automation practice described.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 118<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which template language is commonly used with automation tools to dynamically insert variables into configuration templates?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jinja2<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTML5<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SQL<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bash<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jinja2 is a template engine commonly used in Python-based automation and tools such as Ansible. It allows templates to contain variables, expressions, conditions, and loops that can dynamically generate configuration files or other text output. For network automation, a Jinja2 template can represent a standard device configuration while variables provide device-specific values. HTML5 is a markup standard for web pages, SQL is used for database queries, and Bash is a shell scripting language. Therefore, Jinja2 is the appropriate template technology for dynamically generating configuration content.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 119<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which practice helps ensure that automation scripts can be executed repeatedly without producing unintended duplicate effects?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Idempotency<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Random execution<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manual variation<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uncontrolled state changes<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Idempotency is an important automation principle in which applying the same operation multiple times produces the same intended final state rather than repeatedly creating unwanted changes. For example, an idempotent configuration workflow can ensure that a VLAN exists with the desired settings without creating a duplicate VLAN every time the automation runs. This is particularly valuable when automation jobs are rerun after partial failures or during routine reconciliation. Random execution, manual variation, and uncontrolled state changes do not provide predictable repeated behavior. Therefore, idempotency is the correct concept for safe repeatable automation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Question 120<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><b>Which automation architecture uses a central system to manage and coordinate multiple network devices?<\/b><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Controller-based architecture<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Standalone manual architecture<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Console-only architecture<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Point-to-point cabling architecture<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><b>Correct Answer: 1<\/b><\/p>\n<h3><b>Explanation<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A controller-based architecture uses a centralized system to manage, coordinate, and automate multiple network devices. The controller can maintain inventory, apply policies, collect operational information, and expose APIs or automation workflows. This architecture can simplify management because administrators and applications interact with centralized services instead of independently managing every device. Standalone manual and console-only approaches depend more heavily on direct device administration, while point-to-point cabling describes physical connectivity rather than an automation architecture. Therefore, controller-based architecture is the appropriate choice for centralized network automation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>View Full Cisco CCNA Automation 200-901 Exam Dumps and Practice Test Dumps. &nbsp; Question 101 Which Git command is commonly used to create a local copy of an existing remote repository? git push git clone git merge git reset Correct Answer: 2 Explanation The git clone command creates a local copy of an existing Git [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1648,1647],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15052"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15052"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15052\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15082,"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15052\/revisions\/15082"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15052"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15052"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.examlabs.com\/certification\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15052"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
