Hi Rene, Hi Boris, Thanks @Boris for the information about Marvin. I guess in our case (running automated test against our prod environment) that would not be the ideal choice.

The ansible approach however looks promising, thank you. Going to look into that and find out how to write "tests" using ansible. I'm much more addicted to programming in Python than I am to ansible, and from the automation point of view we are using puppet, so let's see what happens. :-) Thanks and regards Daniel -- Daniel Herrmann Network Engineer – Fraunhofer Private Cloud CCIE #55056 (Routing and Switching) Cisco CCDP, CCIP; Fluke CCTT
