To mitigate the attack, the team requests that the engineering team remove the device from the network. The security team also requests information about the device, such as its name and location. Which tool must the engineering team use to meet the requirements by using tasks?

Options

• CAnsible
• DPuppet

Explanation

{"question_number": 7, "correct_answer": "C", "explanation": "Ansible is the correct tool because its playbooks are structured around 'tasks'-discrete units of work executed in sequence. Ansible can call the Cisco Meraki REST API via its URI module or dedicated Meraki modules to both retrieve device metadata (name, location) and perform actions like removing a device from the network, all defined as named tasks in a playbook. cURL (A) is a command-line HTTP tool with no task/automation structure. Postman (B) is an API testing GUI, not an automation framework. Puppet (D) uses a declarative resource model rather than imperative tasks, making Ansible the clear match for the task-based requirement described.", "generated_by": "claude-sonnet", "llm_judge_score": 3}
