   A team is developing a new REST API for their network management platform. They have defined the endpoints and data models. Which task is the most suitable for AI code generation to accelerate their workflow?

   • ADefining the business requirements and user stories for the API.
   • BGenerating the API documentation, including endpoint descriptions and example requests/responses.
   • CDeciding on the overall security architecture and authentication method for the API.
   • DPerforming load testing and performance analysis of the API.

   A developer is prototyping a new REST API client for a network management system. The developer needs to quickly validate the authentication flow and data retrieval logic before committing to a full implementation. Which approach best demonstrates the use of AI for rapid prototyping?

   • AWrite the complete production-ready code from scratch, ensuring all error handling and edge cases are covered.
   • BAsk the AI to generate unit tests for the API client before writing the client itself.
   • CUse an AI assistant to generate a functional prototype that handles authentication and makes a sample API call, then iterate on it.
   • DCreate a detailed design document and architecture diagram before writing any code.

   A network administrator wants to automate the backup of configuration files from a list of network devices. They have a list of device IP addresses and need a script that connects via SSH, runs the 'show running-config' command, and saves the output to a file. The administrator is proficient in Python but wants to save time. What is the most efficient way to use an AI code generation tool?

   • AAsk the AI to explain how the Netmiko library works, then write the script manually.
   • BWrite the script from scratch, using the AI only to check for syntax errors after completion.
   • CProvide the AI with the device list and ask it to generate a complete script using a known library like Netmiko.
   • DUse the AI to generate a script that uses the subprocess module to call the system's ssh command.
