   A Python script uses RESTCONF to automate a task on a Cisco IOS XE device. The script sends a GET request to /restconf/data/Cisco-IOS-XE-native:native/interface/GigabitEthernet=1/0/3 to retrieve the interface configuration. It then sends a PATCH request to the same URI with a JSON payload that changes the description to "Uplink to Core". Finally, it sends a GET request to verify the change. What is the workflow being automated?

   • ACreating a new interface on the device
   • BUpdating an interface description and verifying it
   • CRetrieving interface statistics for monitoring
   • DDeleting the interface configuration

   A network engineer is writing a Python script to automate the configuration of a new interface on a Cisco IOS XE router using RESTCONF. The script must also verify that the configuration was applied correctly. Which sequence of API calls should the script use?

   • ASend a DELETE request to create the interface, then a GET request to verify it.
   • BSend a PUT request to create the interface, then a POST request to verify it.
   • CSend a GET request to create the interface, then a POST request to verify it.
   • DSend a POST request to create the interface, then a GET request to retrieve the interface configuration and verify it.

   A Python script uses the Cisco Meraki Dashboard API. It first calls GET /api/v1/organizations/{orgId}/networks to list networks, then for each network it calls GET /api/v1/networks/{networkId}/clients to retrieve connected clients. The script then POSTs a message to a webhook URL whenever a client's lastSeen timestamp is older than 30 days. What is the primary workflow being automated?

   • ADeploying new Meraki access points to the networks
   • BConfiguring SSIDs and access policies for the networks
   • CProvisioning new client devices on the network
   • DMonitoring network client activity and generating alerts for inactive clients
