At AnsibleFest 2022, we announced a new addition to the content ecosystem offered through the platform which ishttps://www.redhat.com/en/blog/automate-expert-ansible-validated-content. Ansible validated content is use cases-focused automation content that is packaged as Collections that contain Ansible plugins, roles and playbooks that you can use as an automation job through Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform.

The `health_check` action enables users to fetch the current status of BGP neighborship health for a given network OS.

The `gather` action enables users to gather and display the https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_vars_facts.html#ansible-facts for bgp_address_famly and bgp_global resources as shown below: --- - hosts: ios gather_facts: false tasks: - name: Network BGP Manager ansible.builtin.include_role: name: network.bgp.run vars: ansible_network_os: cisco.ios.ios actions: - name: gather

By using the persist, gather , detect, remediate and deploy actions, network engineers can gain much more flexibility and adopt platform Network BGP automation.
