A network team needs to ensure that all routers have the same NTP configuration and that any drift is detected and corrected. They want to automate this process. Which combination of model-driven programmability use cases is most appropriate?

Network telemetry to monitor NTP traffic and adjust based on traffic patterns

Configuration management to push the NTP config and compliance checking to verify it

CLI scripting to manually configure each device and hope for consistency

Using SNMP to set NTP servers and assume it is correct

A company is building a self-service portal that allows developers to request a new VLAN for their projects. The portal must automatically configure the VLAN on the network and return the VLAN ID to the developer. Which approach best leverages model-driven programmability?

Use a RESTCONF API with YANG models to create the VLAN

Use a script that Telnets to the switch and runs CLI commands

Have the portal send an email to the network team to configure the VLAN manually

A network operations center wants to receive alerts when a router's CPU utilization exceeds 90% for more than five minutes. They want to avoid polling every minute. Which model-driven programmability use case is best suited?

Configuration management using NETCONF

Model-driven telemetry with threshold-based streaming

A multi-vendor enterprise uses Cisco, Juniper, and Arista devices. The automation team wants to write a single compliance-checking script that reads the current running configuration of all devices and compares it against a corporate standard. Which approach is most aligned with model-driven programmability?

Use SNMP MIBs to retrieve configuration data

Use a network scanner to capture device configs via Telnet

Use YANG models to retrieve configuration and state in a structured format

Write separate scripts for each vendor using vendor-specific CLI show commands
