Network Automation at Scale — Standardising Tens of Thousands of Devices
Configuration drift across large multi-site networks is a security and reliability problem. Network automation at enterprise scale is not about one-off scripts; it is about repeatable standards, controlled rollout, evidence, and clear operational ownership.
Automating standards, not just commands.
Ansible architecture
Design inventory, roles, testing, credentials, scheduling, and reporting so network automation can be operated safely at scale.
Multi-vendor standards
Apply AAA, SNMP, TACACS+, VTY ACL, and configuration baselines across Cisco IOS, Cisco Nexus, and Juniper SRX estates.
Operational evidence
Build automation that reports what changed, where it changed, and what remains out of standard, so governance is part of the workflow.
Anonymised delivery evidence.
- For a global availability and disaster-recovery services provider, designed an Ansible-based automation system standardising configurations across approximately 85,000 network devices across 22 datacentres worldwide.
- For the same provider, designed and delivered a large-scale DNS security deployment across 240 sites and 12,000 users, including enterprise-wide policy design and end-user administration training.
- Also automated Windows and Linux patching across the managed estate, achieving 96% patching success.
Best fit.
This service fits managed service providers and enterprises with large, multi-site network estates where manual configuration management has become unsustainable. It pairs with DevOps & Automation and Automation Packages when the work can be scoped into repeatable delivery sprints.
