   A Python script uses the Cisco DNA Center API to automate a task. The script authenticates, then calls GET /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device to retrieve a list of devices. For each device, it calls GET /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device/{id}/interface to retrieve interface information. The script then checks if any interface has an admin status of "down" and prints the device hostname and interface name. What is the workflow being automated?

   • ADeploying a new interface configuration template
   • BConfiguring interfaces on the devices
   • CAuditing interface status across devices
   • DMonitoring device health and assurance scores

   A Python script uses the Cisco DNA Center API. It first authenticates and obtains a token, then calls GET /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device to retrieve a list of devices. For each device, it calls GET /dna/intent/api/v1/network-device/{id}/vlan to retrieve VLAN information. The script then compares the VLANs against a CSV file of expected VLANs and prints a report of any mismatches. What is the workflow being automated?

   • ADeploying an intent-based policy for VLAN segmentation
   • BVerifying device VLAN configurations against a desired baseline
   • CMonitoring network assurance and health scores
   • DProvisioning new devices with VLAN configurations

   A Python script uses the Meraki Dashboard API to iterate through all networks in an organization, retrieve the list of MX appliances, and for each MX appliance, check the 'uplink' status. When an uplink is marked as 'failed', the script posts a message to a Webex Teams room. Which workflow is being automated?

   • ADevice configuration and provisioning
   • BNetwork monitoring and alert management
   • CFabric policy enforcement
   • DIntent-based network provisioning

   A Python script uses RESTCONF to configure a Cisco IOS XE device. It sends a PUT request to /restconf/data/Cisco-IOS-XE-native:native/interface/GigabitEthernet=1/0/2 with a JSON payload that includes the interface name, description, and IP address. The script then sends a GET request to verify the changes. What is the workflow being automated?

   • ARetrieving interface statistics for monitoring
   • BDeleting the interface from the device
   • CUpdating an interface configuration and verifying it
   • DCreating a new interface on the device

   A network engineer at a service provider is writing a Python script that uses the Cisco ACI REST API. The script first authenticates to the APIC, then sends a POST to /api/mo/uni/tn-Prod.json with a payload that includes the key "fvTenant" and attributes for the tenant name and description. Later in the script, the engineer sends another POST to /api/mo/uni/tn-Prod/ap-Web.json with a payload containing "fvAp" and attributes for the application profile name. What is the script automating?

   • ADeploying a new leaf switch and associating it with a tenant
   • BCreating a tenant and an application profile within that tenant
   • CConfiguring a VRF and a bridge domain for the tenant
   • DBinding an EPG to a bridge domain and a VRF
