Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 4

What is required for using Ansible with HTTP/HTTPS protocol in a Cisco NX-OS environment?

Answer options

• A. XML management interface
• B. SSH
• C. Open Agent Container
• D. NX-API

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is NX-API, as it provides the RESTful API interface required for Ansible to communicate over HTTP/HTTPS with Cisco NX-OS devices. The other options, while relevant to network management, do not facilitate the specific HTTP/HTTPS communication necessary for Ansible automation.
