Initial setup of the networking lab on the CentOS Linux

I'm quite often rebuilding the lab VM or server and to ease this task decided to create a simple BASH-based automation for inital provisioning.

What is in the scope

• Update of all the packages
• Installation of Ansible and all dependencies
• Installation of useful Python packages (pyang, ncclient, ipaddr, etc)
• Installation of Virtual Box and all dependencies
• Installation of KVM and all dependencies
• Installation of Vagrant and all dependencies

How to use

Just download or copy the content of the files on the freshly installed CentOS Linux and execute:

• ./initial_setup_virtualbox.sh for installation with Virtual Box
• ./initial_setup_kvm.sh for installation with QEMU/KVM
