200-901 Question 157
Single answerYou are tasked with automating the installation of a network monitoring tool on multiple devices in your network. The Ansible playbook you are reviewing includes tasks that install a package, ensure it is the latest version, and verify its successful installation. What workflow is being automated by this playbook?
- A
Installing and managing software packages across devices
- B
Configuring VLANs on network switches
- C
Performing device firmware upgrades
- D
Setting up SSH keys for secure communication
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The workflow being automated by the Ansible playbook in this scenario is clearly related to the management of software packages, as it involves installing, updating, and verifying the installation of a network monitoring tool. Other options describe different workflows unrelated to package management.
- A. Correct.
This is correct because the playbook's tasks (installing, updating, and verifying packages) align with the workflow of managing software packages across devices.
- B. Incorrect.
This is incorrect because configuring VLANs is unrelated to package management and not mentioned in the playbook tasks.
- C. Incorrect.
This is incorrect because upgrading firmware is a separate workflow from installing and managing software packages.
- D. Incorrect.
This is incorrect because setting up SSH keys focuses on secure communication, not package management.
