Arquitetura para automação de configurações de rede utilizando infraestrutura como Código (IaC). Orientador: Dr. Roger Kreutz Immich. 2025. 96f. Dissertação (Mestrado Profissional em Tecnologia da Informação) - Instituto Metrópole Digital, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2025.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/63866The demand for communication infrastructure is growing drastically, driven by the adoption of new technologies, with a focus on automation, error detection, and high availability. This shift is leveraged through increasingly programmable networks, mainly using technologies such as Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and methodologies like Infrastructure as Code (IaC), allowing networks to be managed as software. These processes require network assets to support protocols like NETCONF and telemetry data transmission using structured formats such as YAML. However, these new methodologies are not easily applied to a legacy equipment base, which lacks adequate support for these protocols. In this context, this work addresses the development of a solution for automating network assets in two complementary areas. First, it proposes an architecture for managing legacy network equipment using an IaC methodology, enabling the automation of routine tasks, fault detection, early problem identification, and configuration verification in a corporate production environment. The focus is on access network devices, as they are more numerous and geographically dispersed. Second, this work contributes to the field of network traffic analysis by constructing a dataset containing corporate network traffic data, serving as a foundation for network analysis and model training. The integration of these two areas enables not only the automated management of network assets but also more accurate assessment and prediction of network traffic conditions and performance. The results of this work showed that it was possible to identify and correct configuration inconsistencies in the assets, use routines to assist in network troubleshooting, and monitor the health of devices through their telemetry.pt-BRAcesso AbertoAutomação de redesInfraestrutura como códigoRedes definidas por softwareInfraestrutura de redesArquitetura para automação de configurações de rede utilizando infraestrutura como Código (IaC)Architecture for network configuration automation using infrastructure as Code (IaC)masterThesisENGENHARIAS
