NSP Infrastructure Configuration Management Operations

Course number: OS00115-W

Course duration: 2 hours

Price: €200

Course overview

This eLearning course enables learners to develop a solid theoretical and practical understanding of NSP Infrastructure Configuration Management operations.  Learn the relationships between configuration intent types, configuration templates and configuration deployments.  Discover how operators use defined configuration templates to deploy both physical and logical configurations, including setting flexible attributes and selecting either individual targets or pre-defined groups.  Learn the lifecycle states of both configuration templates and configuration deployments.  See how to migrate configuration deployments from one template to another and demonstrate how the intent based system tackles configuration drift through the usage of audit and align functionalities.
